Description

Plastic Beach is a 501c3 non-profit entirely focussed on tackling the immense problem of plastic waste in our communities by working with SoCal businesses to provide real and accountable recycling of the prodigious amounts of plastic wrap (bags, pallet wrap etc) that they deal pre-customer. Since operations began in ernest in 2022 we have already surpassed 20,000 lbs. of plastic wrap diverted from landfill to be recycled.

As our operations are almost entirely focussed around collections of this plastic wrap from our community we want to achieve as small a carbon footprint whilst we do so, and so we are looking to fundraise for a new EV Van to replace the 10 year old CNG van we are currently using.

This event at CoLab Public House in Vista is being advertised not only to our donor base, but also to the general public and will include auction and raffle prizes from some of the businesses we support. 

By supporting this event you will be helping us further help our community increase diversion of plastic wrap to recycling, whilst also helping us do it in a more efficient and green way. In addition, your brands get to be associated with a Green cause on this years Earth Day.
