Universal Foundation leads Hulhumalé beach cleanup initiative for World Cleanup Day

The Universal Foundation organised a large-scale community clean-up event at Hulhumalé Beach on September 20th in honour of World Cleanup Day 2024. More than 300 employees from Universal’s corporate office and resorts took part in the initiative, joining 23 million participants worldwide in a collective effort to combat waste pollution.

World Cleanup Day is an annual event that brings together volunteers globally to address environmental challenges. Universal Foundation used this opportunity to emphasise the importance of environmental stewardship among its staff and foster a culture of responsible waste disposal. The event focused on cleaning Hulhumalé Beach, highlighting the organisation’s commitment to reducing waste and preserving the natural beauty of the Maldives.

This initiative is part of Universal Foundation’s broader mission to support sustainability and protect the environment. By engaging its employees in such efforts, the foundation continues to promote eco-consciousness and encourage collective action. Through this cleanup, the company not only contributed to maintaining the pristine condition of Hulhumalé Beach but also supported a global movement for a cleaner, healthier planet.

The foundation’s ongoing efforts are a testament to its dedication to environmental responsibility. By participating in initiatives like World Cleanup Day, Universal Foundation aims to inspire both its workforce and the wider community to take proactive steps in protecting the environment for future generations.
