Each year, groups of students in specially designated locations participate in a beach cleanup, and cap off the day by standing in formation on the sand to spell out a giant message, which is photographed from the air.

The cleanup is the culminating event of a larger program, the Kids' Adopt-A-Beach School Assembly Program, in which students from underserved and inland schools learn about the oceans, marine life, litter reduction, recycling, and how urban and inland neighborhoods are connected to the beaches through storm drains. The program was started in Los Angeles in 1994 by the Malibu Foundation for Environmental Education with support from the Coastal Commission.
