Now, thanks to Mozambique, plogging has become part of the campaign. 

Yesterday, my mom and I had the absolute pleasure of being part of the King’s Baton Relay Clean-up event in KwaZulu-Natal! I’m beyond proud that Save a Fishie was chosen as a Country Partner by the Royal Commonwealth Society for the clean-up segment of this iconic relay. It was a day that celebrated action, connection, and the power of communities coming together for our planet.
