🌎 Volunteer Spotlight: Miriam!!!
A big shoutout to our friend, supporter and Beach Relief volunteer Miriam! 💙
Miriam regularly joins us at Beach Relief cleanups, often bringing her sister along to lend a hand, and she also consistently cleans up her own neighbourhood along a 7 km walking route.
She’s amazed by how quickly litter returns after she cleans an area and has noticed that bus stops and boulevards are particularly bad. Along her entire 7 km route, she passes only one garbage can.
Despite it all, she keeps going, and people running and cycling by often stop to thank her.
And apparently she’s officially caught the cleanup bug:
“I am addicted.” 😂♻️
Thank you, Miriam Richber-Weber, for showing exactly what Do What You Can is all about. 💙🌎

🌊 Beach Relief Update 🌊
Beach Relief is taking a little break for the moment 💙
As much as I love organizing cleanups, hosting workshops, and doing everything I can to help protect our oceans, I’ll be working this season in the Northwest Territories. This means things will be a bit quieter for now—but only temporarily.
I’ll be sharing more soon about what’s next for Beach Relief, and I’m really excited for what’s ahead.
In the meantime, the mission doesn’t stop—there’s so much we can all do in our everyday lives to help protect our oceans 🌎
Here are a few simple things you can do:
🌱 Skip single-use plastics where you can
🛍 Bring a reusable bag, bottle, and containers
🚮 Pick up a few pieces of litter when you’re out
🐠 Choose reef-safe and eco-friendly products
📚 Share what you know and start conversations
Every small action adds up. Thank you for continuing to support Beach Relief and being part of this community 🌊💙

Based on my trial walk the other day, I was going to plan a cleanup at Hamilton Beach. But guess what? This amazing organization Great Lakes Great Responsibility has already got one in the works💪💚Let’s help and do what we can to get this beach cleaned up!

HAMILTON! We are heading your way and would love to see you at our Lake Ontario Shoreline cleanup. You are stop #1 of 5 on our Great Lakes Cleanup Road Trip — an effort to raise awareness about plastics in our freshwater.
This event is about stewardship and education through action. 🌊 🧤 🪣
We’re inviting anyone and everyone to lend a hand, build community, play some games and maybe even win a prize or two! 🌸🤭

Awesome cleanup tonight 🙌
soooo much GARBAGE!!! 😳 AGAIN - in the SAME place...
Plastic bottles (mostly water), Timmy’s cups, cigarette butts. UGH.😩
Huge thank you to everyone who came out and put in the work 💪🌍
Friendly reminder ♻️
Choose a reusable bottle - whenever you can —for water, coffee, tea… PLEASE. This pollution problem is OUT OF CONTROL!!!
Also—sorry to cancel Sunday’s Trail & Ale cleanup, it will be rescheduled soon! Stay tuned 👀
