Following the two successful trips to Naxos and Kos, our 3rd stop was Santorini, where on Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th June our volunteer-workers together with the volunteers of Aegean Rebreath in collaboration with the Port Fund of Thira worked with an excess of patience and persistence for the cleaning of the fishing shelter of Vlychada.
During the action the volunteers collected from the seabed and sorted: 834 plastics and synthetic polymers, 39 wheels, 71 items of fabric, blankets, rugs and carpets, 495 metal items, 72 glass/ceramic items and 5.5 bags of various plastic objects.

The goal of the program is to further raise the awareness of the local communities of the islands where we operate in matters of marine environment protection, circular economy and sustainable development for a better today and an even better tomorrow for all of us. Also, to instill the value of volunteering and cultivate the spirit of cooperation among our employees.
