Maui Nui volunteers are once again coming together as a community to care for our ‘aina.

It’s time for the annual “Get the Drift and Bag It!” cleanup campaign from Sept. 3-17.

You can join in scheduled events or host your own “Get the Drift & Bag It!” cleanup. Visit MalamaMauiNui.org/Cleanups to get started.

“Get the Drift and Bag It!” is an annual cleanup campaign hosted by Malama Maui Nui in partnership with the Ocean Conservancy that seeks to empower Maui Nui residents in their environmental stewardship of our island community.

This campaign is held in partnership with Ocean Conservancy’s International Coastal Cleanup, which mobilizes communities around the globe to host cleanups, collect litter data and support science-based solutions for a healthy Earth and its oceans. Malama Maui Nui has participated in this initiative for over three decades.

Last year, from mauka to makai, dozens of community members hosted cleanups at different locations across Maui.

Participation and borrowed supplies are free of charge. Donations are encouraged and appreciated!

According to a Malama Maui Nui supporter, “Your work to maintain and beautify Maui will allow many generations ahead to enjoy and experience the gift that is Maui.”
