SUNPLAY IS TAKING ACTION FOR CLEANER SEAS

SUNPLAY’S 'WE CARE FOR THE OCEAN 2023' CAMPAIGN CHAMPIONS ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY

Sunplay, a leading brand in sun protection, is thrilled to announce the launch of its third consecutive CSR campaign, ‘We Care for the Ocean 2023’. The campaign aims to raise awareness about ocean pollution and is calling for volunteers to join in its effort to clean up the beaches.

This year, it is taking its commitment to the next level by their efforts to include beaches in Negeri Sembilan which is Pantai Blue Lagoon. This extension demonstrates Sunplay's dedication to broadening their impact and addressing environmental concerns in different regions of Malaysia. In total, they will be cleaning up seven beaches across the country.

 

In conjunction with this campaign, Sunplay is collaborating with the Malaysian Nature Society (MNS) and Watsons. During the campaign period, RM 1 from every Sunplay outdoor sunscreen sold in Watsons in the month of November will be channelled to the campaign fund. This initiative encourages consumers to contribute to the cause while ensuring their skin remains protected under the sun.

 

Melissa Tan, Local Climate Action and Sustainability Advocate

Sunplay is also collaborating with a well-known local climate action and sustainability advocate Melissa Tan, who will add a fresh perspective to the campaign. Her expertise and passion for protecting the environment will help raise awareness about the dangers of ocean pollution and inspire more people to act.

 

Last year, the campaign successfully collected 1,348kg of trash and this year, Sunplay aspires to collect even more, to make a significant impact in keeping our beaches clean and preserving the marine ecosystem.
