Our Story
Founded in 2019, Race to Zero Waste emerged from a successful fiscally sponsored project by Marin Link. The organization gained recognition through its signature event, the Cup-Free & Bib-Free 5K Run to Zero Waste, held at Crissy Field in San Francisco. This vibrant festival featured educational stations, sustainable sponsors, and engaging activities aimed at raising awareness about marine pollution. The funds raised supported the installation of beach clean-up stations, paving the way for the innovative Zero Waste Station pop-up program.
