On August 2, various government agencies joined forces with local volunteers to conduct a coastal clean-up initiative along the shores of Barangay 2. The event aimed to enhance environmental protection and support marine conservation efforts in the area.
Participants included personnel from the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) Mamburao District Jail, the Philippine Army, Philippine Coast Guard, Bureau of Fire Protection, representatives from the local government unit, and residents of the community.
During the clean-up, volunteers focused on gathering non-biodegradable litter such as plastic bottles, food wrappers, and other debris contaminating the coastline. The collected waste underwent proper segregation before being turned over to the local waste management office for responsible disposal.
Joefrie Anglo, BJMP Mimaropa Regional Information Officer and Jail Officer 3, highlighted the significance of the activity. He said, "This effort reflects our agency’s dedication not only to our custodial responsibilities but also to environmental preservation and public safety initiatives. By working together, we hope to motivate more members of the community to actively participate in protecting our natural resources."
The BJMP emphasized that the clean-up aligns with its guiding principle of "Changing Lives, Building a Safer Nation," underscoring the critical role of inter-agency cooperation and civic engagement in fostering environmental stewardship.
