The Cayman Islands Chamber of Commerce proudly announces the 2025 Earth Day Cleanup on Saturday, April 26th. This highly anticipated event aligns with the Chamber’s Enhancing the Quality-of-Life pillar, a key focus of its three-year advocacy agenda. As the Chamber celebrates its 60th anniversary, it continues its unwavering commitment to environmental sustainability, having organized this cleanup since 1997. The Chamber of Commerce Earth Day Cleanup, the largest volunteerdriven cleanup initiative in the Cayman Islands, is a testament to the community's dedication to environmental stewardship. Over 3,000 volunteers annually remove litter from beaches, parks, and roadsides, helping maintain the islands' natural beauty for both residents and visitors.

This year’s theme, “Our Power, Our Planet,” highlights the environmental threats posed by plastic pollution, particularly to marine wildlife. Sponsors can showcase their commitment to sustainability while gaining visibility within the community. Sponsorship allows businesses to enhance their corporate social responsibility profile and connect with a large audience. Why Participate? “Keeping our islands clean and green is everyone’s responsibility,” said Chamber CEO Wil Pineau. “We encourage all residents, schools and volunteer community groups to participate in this initiative, dedicating just a few hours to make a real difference in their communities.” The Chamber also seeks volunteers to help pack Earth Day kits, including gloves, T-shirts, and trash bags. These kits are essential for our volunteers to ensure their safety and comfort during the cleanup. Those interested can visit the Chamber offices at Governor’s Square in the weeks before Earth Day. Sign Up Today! The Chamber invites people of all ages to participate in this rewarding event and take an active role in preserving the beauty of the Cayman Islands.
