Indian Rocks Beach Trash Tribe Committed to Helping Community After Hurricanes

INDIAN ROCKS BEACH, Fla. — The Indian Rocks Beach Trash Tribe is committed to keeping the city’s beaches clean and well-maintained.

However, after two hurricanes, everything changed.

The Trash Tribe, led by Jenn Privall, began operating the day after Hurricane Helen.

Hundreds of people and businesses were impacted by storm surge and floodwaters along our barrier islands, and the need was extreme.

Privalle and her tribe have turned a local yoga studio into a warehouse for donated goods and a place where people can receive supplies.

“We brought thousands of people, and I mean the country, we received donations for supplies from all over the country,” Privalle explains. “They brought all these supplies here and helped thousands and thousands of residents.”

The nonprofit didn’t stop. The need for assistance has increased since Hurricane Milton, and together they continue to help those in the community who need it most.

They accept donations at their makeshift warehouse at ZEN Massage and Yoga.

On October 26 they will return to the cleanup day. The event will take place from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm and volunteers will meet at 1401 Gulf Blvd. The purpose of cleaning is to collect the remaining small piles of garbage. Volunteers are asked to bring a rake. Children can come.
