Let's keep Hawai'i Trash free

"For more than 20 years, DTRIC has been working our adopted stretch of Ala Moana Boulevard between Piikoi and Kalakaua Avenue. We believe in keeping the community clear of trash and debris to make Hawaii a better place to live for all. We pickup trash regularly on Saturdays, gathering at the entrance of Ala Moana Park and spreading both directions of Ala Moana Boulevard, rain or shine."

"We are a part of the Adopt-A-Highway program because we're a local company that loves their island! As a service company, we've been helping the community for years and we believe in giving back to the place that has given us so much."

"At the BOSS program we love to give our Soldiers the opportunity to help out the community and Adopt-a-Highway has given us that opportunity."

"About a dozen of us spent our Sunday morning picking up opala around Nuuanu Valley Park and nearby highway. We collected 14 bags of trash. One of the community projects we support."

"We enjoy taking care of our community in which we live and work."

"Bowers+Kubota proudly participate in Adopt-A-Highway to help beautify our community and protect the environment while fostering a strong sense of teamwork and camaraderie among our employees."

"We are passionate about keeping our aina clean and rubbish free! Litter not only impacts our direct environment as an eyesore but is extremely important to keep human and marine life safe and healthy. Whenever we gather to collect together for Adopt-A-Highway, it feels fulfilling and encouraging for a cleaner future for our keiki. It also sets a precedent for tourists and visitors to follow by example by treating the aina with respect. Hawaii Life cleans the area from Sea Life Park to Waimanalo. We also coordinate the highway clean up annually during the Hui Nalu - Kaiwi Coast Run Walk - when the highway is closed and it is a super safe time to pick up garbage!"

"We are a part of Adopt-A-Highway because it aligns with our responsibility to serve the community. Our vision is to teach people to live beyond their addictions and become productive members of society. Acts of service and giving back to our local community is truly a way to express our respect and it enables us to build a stronger moral standing while regaining self-esteem, self-worth, and self-discipline."

"Alpha Phi Omega-Hawaii has been a part of the Adopt-A-Highway program for almost a decade now. For many years, we adopted a two-mile stretch of the Mililani bound H2-Freeway until we were relocated to the Fort Weaver Road between Queen's Medicater Center-West and Karayan St in Ewa Beach. Our group recognizes the need for everyone to take part in caring for our environment. Participating in the Adopt-A-Highway program of the Department of Transportation provides us an opportunity to help keep our roadsides clean and pleasant to the eyes. We truly believe in an indigenous people's proverb: We did not inherit the Earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children."
