Drains To Ocean

Protecting the Ocean, One Drain at a Time

Get Activated

Drains to Ocean is a grass roots, non-profit organization with a mission to keep pollution from flowing into rivers, lakes, and oceans. We believe that every drain matters. Our goal is to create awareness by educating the public and empowering local networks of active volunteers to participate in worldwide street, snow and beach cleanups.

Drains to Ocean is a *non-profit organization created for you and powered by the people.

The goal is to educate the public about litter issues that are created the second we step out of our own front doors. We want to bring awareness to the extensive pollution issues effecting our local streets, wetlands, beaches, and waterways...

Our Mission

“I created a Street Cleanup, by the Potomac River with our local Girls Scouts Troup. It was fun, educational and inspiring for our girls. The girls felt good about cleaning up the environment and protecting the animals. We plan on doing another “Drains to Ocean” street cleanup in the near future.”
