Mission Statement

Malibu Foundation for Environmental Education is a Los Angeles City based organization that takes it’s name from Malibu, that means, "Where the surf sounds loudly" and "Where the mountains meet the sea." The appreciation of the beaches and oceans is the value that drives the Foundation to outreach to underserved communities in Los Angeles. Our annual KIDS OCEAN DAY Adopt-A-Beach Clean-Up field trip connects KIDS to the beaches and oceans and contributes to their appreciation of our shared resources. This experience actually gets children’s feet and hands in the sand. One of the basic concepts of Environmental Education is to get children outside and in touch with nature
