about us
CleanPlanet is a non-profit organization committed to empowering community leaders around the world. We are committed to raising Global Awareness through one of our campaigns called "CleanPlanetDay" held monthly on the last Saturday of every Month.
CleanPlanet's purpose is to continue to raise awareness on the importance of being mindful of how we treat our planet. Promoting initiatives to beautify and enhance our planet earth, our only home. We are driven by a single goal; to do our part in uniting the world to create a clean and healthy planet for all.
We create growth and develop opportunities while encouraging volunteers to come together with a common goal in mind.
We believe that it’s time for a conscious shift in how we relate to our planet. As we continue to help raise awareness that this is everyone’s planet to care for and be proud of, we also seek to empower communities to stand and speak for what they need.
We emphasize the importance of building productive and empowering relationships as we make a positive impact on all of our pursuits. With participants in Colombia, Peru, Mexico, The United States, Nigeria, Haiti, Morocco, Germany, India, and Ghana we are building momentum aiming to reach participants in 24 Countries by the end of 2022.

Our Story
.jpg)
CleanPlanet was inspired by a project that was started back in 2015 named "Ignite Da Streetz" in San Diego, CA. In May 2018, Sebastian Hernandez, Founder of CleanPlanet arrived to Santa Marta, Colombia and saw the opportunity to reignite that vision and propel it forward. That Vision was to provide income opportunities for the homeless and lower income families to get back on their feet by cleaning and making their communities look beautiful, attracting more tourism and a better economy. We provide them the tools to raise their quality of life while raising awareness on the importance of taking care of our planet.
Our first "CleanPlanetDay" Campaign started with two close friends. On June 27, 2018, Sebastian Hernandez and Juan Sebastian Vargas went to a beach in Taganga, Colombia and picked up CleanPlanet's first 2 bags of trash. CleanPlanet became a reality and a month later, CleanPlanet paid their first 2 volunteers and 4 other beautiful souls saw what we were doing and jumped in to help. With a total of 7 people, we picked up 20 bags of trash from a nature trail and felt accomplished for something big was about to happen.
This event was a huge breakthrough. We showed what was possible when you take initiative and do what your heart pulls you to do. We created a small video, shared it locally with the community, and key players were inspired.
CleanPlanet launched its third 'CleanPlanetDay' with a total of 20 volunteers and 75 bags of trash picked up weighing a total of over 250 kg. Needless to say, results were speaking volumes of the vision manifesting. On August 16, 2019, we submitted the paperwork to establish ourselves as a non-profit foundation dedicated to cleaning the planet while raising the quality of life of those that participate.
Shortly after, on August 19, 2018, CleanPlanet launched their fourth event with almost 40+ volunteers in two different locations being cleaned at the same time. We collected 85 bags weighing in at over 400 kg from nature.
Volunteers consisted of entrepreneurs, students, Colombian Military, Red Cross members, and community activist ready for a change.
We have come a long way having had a CleanPlanetDay every month since then, expanding with Participants in 10 Countries including Colombia, United States, Mexico, Peru, Haiti, Nigeria, Ghana, Germany, Morocco, and India. We have inspired local governments to assist us in logistics and support while continuing to expand our impact by adding new members to the team committed to making a Global Impact. At the rate that we are going, the foundation will continue to expand internationally with our focus set on 24 countries by the end of 2022
As the excitement continues to expand globally, communities around the world are coming together to bring awareness of taking care of our planet however we need assistance in taking CleanPlanet to the next level.

+ Raising Consciousness
- With access to the right resources, people can become empowered by their own abilities and gain the confidence to fulfill their potential. Many of the people that begin to work with the foundation have not been exposed to self-development work. By creating an environment that promotes self-awareness and growth mindset, the volunteers expand on their relationship to their self. Building up confidence, self-esteem, and overall their view of the world begins to alter into one of hope and collaboration. Your donation is contributing to the professional and personal development of people that may have never been exposed to this type of work in the world.
