AMC Team Members and Families Come Together for 2025 Seal Beach Cleanup

August 23, 2025

The Live Happy Project brings team spirit and community care to the shoreline

SEAL BEACH, Calif. (August 23, 2025) – AMC team members and their families gathered at the Seal Beach Pier this past Saturday to roll up their sleeves and make a positive impact on the local shoreline. Organized through The Live Happy Project, an AMC employee run and funded initiative, the beach cleanup brought together dozens of volunteers united by a shared commitment to care for the environment and support the communities we serve.


In line with AMC’s Live Green philosophy and sustainability initiatives, volunteers used compostable gloves and trash bags during the event, ensuring the cleanup itself reflected environmentally responsible practices. Despite an overcast morning, the energy was bright as volunteers collected litter from the pier parking lot and surrounding stretch of beach. Families worked side by side, demonstrating the power of teamwork and the joy of giving back together. The group wrapped up just in time to avoid a passing rain shower—leaving the shoreline cleaner, safer, and more welcoming for all who visit.


AMC President Danielle McCarthy remarked, “At AMC, we believe that every community is enriched when its members lend a hand, especially in the places we all share and love. The Live Happy Project is one way we honor that belief — by making tangible improvements, and doing so together.” 


The Seal Beach Cleanup is part of a broader series of community initiatives hosted by The Live Happy Project. Earlier this summer, the program organized the Annual Backpack Drive supporting local families, and it is already preparing for the Thanksgiving Dinner Donation this November. By taking part in projects that protect natural spaces, AMC team members continue to bring The Live Happy Project to life—making a difference through small, collective actions that create a lasting impact.
