Coastal Playground is a clothing company that operates on a 50/50 business model and donates half of its profits toward coastal conservation and education.
Andrew Sneddon founded the company as a way to combine his love for art and casual clothing with an initiative that protected the beaches where he spent most of his time. With a dedicated commitment from his childhood friend Adrian, the two were able to create a fashion line that also gives back.
Partnered with organizations such as the Orange County Coastkeeper and the Coastal Conservation Network, the Southern Californian company provides funding to organizations that help to beautify the coastline and ensure that it remains a serene and pollution free space to enjoy.
