DU alum Bill Valaika founded the nonprofit Habitat Healers to clean up beaches and save endangered species, especially sea turtles. On its maiden expedition, Habitat Healers took eight people to Tortuguero Beach in Costa Rica, where they partnered with another group to clean 1.5 miles of beach in two days, removing more than 5,000 pounds of trash and taking it by boat to the closest recycling center. The group also set up a recycling program for the nearby village of San Francisco. Children from the village school helped clean the beach, learned about recycling and got the chance to play barefoot soccer with some Habitat Healers volunteers.
