Annual Highlights
Since the 2008 establishment of Israel’s National Clean Up Day”, the number of participants in the annual campaign is rapidly growing. In Cooperation with the Ministry of Envi-ronmental Protection, we distributed gloves, bags and more to volunteers across the country who took part in the nationwide cam-paign. Variety of heart-warming environmental activi-ties have been careful-ly planned and on Na-tional Clean-up day the thousands of volun-teers went on public outdoors clean-up ac-tivities. Groves, parks, neighborhoods and beaches were targeted and the volunteers of all ages from across the country, filled thousands of garbage bags in the variety of inspirational CleanUp operations from Nahariya to Eilat . On National Clean Up Day which is held annually on the l last Tuesday of the month Adar Schools are encouraged to hold a educational programs with an emphasis on the environment, and all students, soldiers and citi-zens are encouraged to participate in public areas clean-up activities throughout the country. In addition, there are ceremonies, events, and a host of educational activities which appeal to a variety of audiences: deci-sion makers, municipal leaders, students, families and the general public – all intent to raise public awareness to conservation issues and the envi-ronment.
Thousands participate in Israel’s "National Clean Up Day" Tons of litter collected from public areas.
Mentoring for Environ-mental Protection “Hof Naki” -Israel’s Clean Coast Program is expending its activities to the younger generation and is now part of Mentoring project in Israel’s schools. Kindergartens applying for “Green Kindergarten” accreditation are assigned 7th grade students as en-vironmental mentors. The mentor-ing program works both way for mentors and kids with regards to understanding the importance of habit-changing and environmental protection. Clean Up Israel works closely with Hof Naki and supports all of its activi-ties as prime partner on the road to a cleaner Israel.

We need your help…
Caring for the e environment has no religion or age barri-
ers; Both Arab and Jewish communities in Israel have par-
ticipated in clean-ups across the country in our March
Campaign, promoting a cleaner Israel environment .
Although the severity of public area’s cleanliness is worse
in Arab area’s, the trend for Green school accreditation is
growing strong in both communities equally, raising
awareness country wide.
Cleaning Up Israel’s Beaches Committed to Our Cause Dear Friends, It is my pleasure to send you an Annual Highlights Issue for the 2011-2012 year. This is a Bar Mitzva Year for Clean Up Israel. I feel, that together with the project—Israel too has matured a little with regards to caring for it’s environment… This year, more then 100,000 people committed to a Cleaner Israel in our campaigns throughout the year. however—the road is still long and we keep on going… We have recently launched a new web site , aimed at increasing public awareness and actions towards a Cleaner Israel. I invite you to visit our new web site and share it around as another step towards a Clean Up Israel. I also like to take this opportunity and thank everyone of you who cared, shared and helped our project and thank in advance for those who will. Yours Sincerely, Phillip Foxman.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR
FOUNDER
Major Sponsors
The Last annual International Coastal Clean Up in Israel brought a record number of volunteers to Clean Up Israel’s coastline. Some 5,500 volunteers had participated in more than 50 individual clean-ups. The various activities included propaganda distribution to beach goers as well as edu-cational activities – all aimed at raising the awareness about the importance of caring for the cleanliness of our beaches. Ocean Conservancy who initiates the global campaign issues the annual "Trash Travels" report which is based on the cleaning oper-ations. This report is constructed from data col-lected at the clean ups and provides a roadmap for reducing marine debris, re-ducing the source, modifying the behaviour that leads to its formation and taking ac-tions and policies to better prevent it.
Clean Up Israel unites communities
Cleanup goes Underwater as well Israeli divers join Coastal Clean Up
efforts and volunteered underwater
clean up operations on the coast line
in Eilat as well Nahariya beaches
The divers from Eilat Bay guards and
Putzkar Dive center in Nahariya col-
lected dozens of bags filled with de-
bris. In addition, heavy debris was
piled underwater to be collected lat-
er by suitable heavy duty equipment.
Several underwater campaigns take
place every year yet the accumulated
costs involved in these cleanups are
high and as such, the underwater op-
erations are stile rare and depend
mainly on donations and volunteered
work. A
