Employees of Belair Internet and Bamko joined together Saturday morning for a beach cleanup along Venice Beach at Breakwater. Belair and Bamko are unrelated companies, with the exception that the father runs Belair and the son runs Bamko. The two companies have a long history of engaging in volunteer community projects, and are committed to community service and social responsibility. The event was organized by the Surfrider Foundation, a non profit organization dedicated to the protection of our world’s oceans.
