Support Plastic Odyssey Fund’s flagship U.S. chapter — mobilizing local action to drive global ocean impact.

Why San Francisco?

The Golden Gate Lighthouse is the first official Plastic Odyssey Fund chapter in the U.S., launched in San Francisco — a city known for environmental innovation, community leadership, and deep ties to the Pacific.

As the flagship Lighthouse, this chapter leads by example: organizing cleanups, building partnerships, engaging schools, and raising awareness — all to support the global mission of Plastic Odyssey.
