Happy Earth Day from the Chris Bertish Foundation! Earth Day is our reminder each year of the beauty of our surroundings and how much the earth gives us. We’re celebrating Earth Day by giving back and being in awe of the incredible world around us! youtu.be/UFeWKoItdB8

Every day about 8 million pieces of plastic make their way into our oceans. Next time you're on holiday, do a beach clean up! Let's all do our part to leave the world better than we found it. #BeachCleanUp #conservation

A child is born with a cleft lip or cleft pallet every three minutes? We know the power of a smile, and that's why we work with Operation Smile to provide life-saving reconstructive cleft surgeries worldwide, changing lives one smile at a time. #Smile

Two Oceans Aquarium has rescued and released hundreds of sea turtles back into the wild. We're proud to partner with them and have accompanied them on many turtle releases. It's amazing to see a fully recovered sea turtle swim back to its home! #endangered #turtles

In all of our partnerships and giveback programs, we work to inspire courage, confidence and self-belief in our youth. By learning the beauty in nature from a young age, we hope we can inspire the next generation to respect each other and the world around us.

Among many of their conservation projects, Two Oceans Aquarium has a turtle rehabilitation program that allows them to care for and release a number of turtles off the Coast. #aquarium

There is no limit to what we can tap into when we unlock the power of education! #Ambassador #learning #EducationNeverDies

Earlier this year Chris spoke virtually to the students at Hamilton Elementary, inspiring them to achieve their greatest potential and to care for others and the planet! Everyone really enjoyed the event, and it made us so happy to receive these amazing cards from the kids after!

The mangrove is the superhero tree! Mangroves are able to get rid of five times more carbon from the atmosphere than any other plant! We partner with the Worldview Climate Change Park, planting more and more mangroves each year to help offset carbon pollution. #ClimateCrisis

The ocean has so much to teach us.. take a moment, look out, and learn to appreciate the beauty in nature. It inspires us every day. #nature #Sustainability #conservation

In 2017 our founder, Chris Bertish, stand-up paddled 4,600 miles across the entire Atlantic Ocean to raise money and awareness for Operation Smile. Chris continues to travel around the world speaking about this feat and raising awareness for Operation Smile! #Smile

We've always been inspired by the ocean, the one thing that connects us for thousands of miles around the world. We believe the world needs to re-think their commitment to the ocean, learn to love it, protect it, and respect it. #ClimateCrisis #ClimateAction #Sustainability

At the Chris Bertish Foundation, we work to inspire courage, confidence, and self-belief in our youth. Our goal is to foster a more empathic generation who are invested in giving back, and caring for others and the world around them. ⁠ #NextGen #empathymatters

Nearly all species of sea turtle are classified as endangered after years of poaching, over-exploitation, and ingestion of plastic. Over 1,000 sea turtles die annually from digesting plastic alone. We have to act soon to preserve this amazing species! #plasticpollution
