Sarah Mendez is kayaking around Kauai for a cause.
Actually, it’s for three causes: to shed light on the problem with single-use plastics, provide clean drinking water for those who don’t have it, and clean up some of the most remote beaches in the world.
She’s not doing it alone. With the help of a friend who’s not comfortable with the public eye and a team of people from all walks of life, Mendez is embarking on a kayak trip to encircle the island the first week of November, 2019.
