Different student organizations from Gordon College and other colleges of Olongapo City, along with volunteers, local offices, and the Local Government Unit of Olongapo City have participated in the β€œMaking Riverth Possible 2023”, a citywide cleanup drive held at Kalaklan Parola and Driftwood Beach earlier today, September 16, 2023.

According to the Olongapo City Information Center, there are an estimated 3,000 volunteers for the coastal clean-up, which made it successful once again. The volunteers of the event were given checklists in which they were required to categorize and count the trash that they had collected. The checklists will be used to gain information about the most common trash found in the coastal areas.

The event was graced by the Olongapo City Council which gave away several souvenir shirts as memorabilia for the event.
