Yardi Long Island

Volunteers for Beach Cleanup

Let’s swim over to The New York Marine Rescue Center located in Riverhead, Long Island, founded in 1996, a rescue and rehabilitation organization that promotes marine conservation and is the primary responder for sick marine life like seals, sea turtles, dolphins, porpoises and small-toothed whales.

Their mission is to preserve and protect the marine environment through various conservation efforts such as rescue, rehabilitation, education and research. It is the only marine mammal and sea turtle rehabilitation center in New York State.

To assist the organization with its mission, #TeamYardi members from the Long Island, NY office had 27 volunteers that went to Robert Moses Beach for recent beach clean-up days.

One of the groups gathered over 21 pounds of debris. The employees enjoyed a day at the beach and made an incredible impact on the marine environment.

In addition to two beach clean-up days, eight volunteers represented Yardi at the New York Marine Rescue Center’s Ocean of Hope event. Yardi contributed a charitable donation, and the volunteers enjoyed silent auctions, music and food.
