The International WeLoveU Foundation will be holding an environmental cleanup event in Santee on Sunday, June 26, 2022. Members of the community are encouraged to come volunteer their time picking up trash from the riverbed of the Forester Creek. This event is part of the organization’s "Clean WORLD Movement" to restore ecosystems that have been neglected by picking up waste accumulated during the pandemic. Since the onset of COVID-19, there has been an increase in single-use materials, recycling centers were closed or accepted fewer materials, and cleanups were canceled or postponed because of social distancing restrictions. As a result, now our ecosystems are riddled with waste and pollution. For a happier and healthier society, the International WeLoveU Foundation promotes unity and friendship among all people of the global village – beyond nationality, race, religion and socioeconomic status – through impactful environmental and social welfare initiatives carried out with the heart of a mother. For tending to the needs of the global village, WeLoveU has received more than 100 honorary and presidential awards from various countries. Some of these include the U.S. President’s Call to Service Award for volunteerism and the Green Apple Award for best environmental practice. By coming together, we can achieve a brighter and cleaner world! Follow them on Social Media! Facebook + Instagram
