CleanupTime stems from our long term experience of beach cleaning and awareness activities, but also our pledge to work in a collaborative approach with our network of experts to propose innovative projects that serve the Hong Kong community.
GET TO
KNOW US
CleanupTime is a platform making it easy and motivating to act for the Ocean in Hong Kong through beach cleaning activities, by giving visibility, showcasing the impact and offering rewards to volunteers.
Our goals
What do we want
Let’s put it simply: we want to better monitor the spatial and temporal variability of marine litter in order to tailor the action on the most common items found on the shores. Additionally, we think volunteers that spend their time outdoors cleaning our shores should be rewarded for their effort and we found in Time Auction the perfect partner to do that.
Collaboration
CleanupTime is initiated by Ocean3C, a non-profit organisation for Hong Kong Community to promote Ocean Literacy and Sustainability through its 4 pillars (EDU, CLEAN, ART and LAB).
Science is key
Thanks to our long term solid relationship with the scientific community acting for ocean protection, we have partnered with the Swire Institute of Marine Science (SWIMS) from the University of Hong Kong (HKU) and Dr Christelle Not to build a database of waste found on our shores, feed the research work and accelerate knowledge on local marine plastic pollution.
So does charity
Time Auction is a charity that advocates volunteerism by connecting skilled volunteers with NGOs and offering inspiring experiences in return. Participate to CleanupTime program, and earn unique access to your passions — from learning to cook from Michelin-starred chefs to creative workshops.
