What I liked
The team at Keep Pinellas Beautiful is very passionate about what they do (litter prevention, waste reduction, education, and beautification/community greening) and overall this is a very welcoming environment for interns. I enjoyed getting to see how a nonprofit is run and learning how each cleanup, invasive removal, beautification project, and education presentation is set up, planned, and delivered. The chance to learn about Florida native species, gardening, invasive species, microplastics, and marine debris was amazing.
