Manav Sanger volunteering experience
By cleaning the park and collecting plastic canes, plastic bags, papers and other waste materials, such as plastic straw, which are very harmful for our environment, we can protect nature. I believe in making a difference through cleaning up the environment. I enjoy volunteering, such as cleaning parks, streets and beaches. I believe in love all, serve all. I have been volunteering in Malta for the last 5 years. My goal is to serve everyone. This is my hobby. I volunteer all over Malta. I give blankets and food to homeless people when I see homeless people in the street. I love nature and the environment. When I find abandoned animals, I catch them and hand them over to the animal rescue authority of Malta. I strongly support environmental protection. I encourage everyone to make a difference by keeping Malta, Europe and the world clean. I also believe love ever hurt never.
I agree with not using plastic goods. Malta has beaches and it is a beautiful island. World Animal Protection is working to safeguard sea creatures from ghost gear with remove, rescue, reduce, and recycle. We can play our part in protecting our oceans.
