    Environmental Cleanups

    Vieques relies on its natural beauty to support a tourism economy. We’ve teamed up with local groups to clean up trash and storm debris on beaches and in neighborhoods around the island. Projects like this help support community resilience through a stronger local economy and stewardship of public spaces.
