RJ Vida, CEO of The Production Crew, and his team are avid water enthusiasts. Spending their free time on kayaks, boats, and paddle boards, they noticed an overwhelming amount of trash. With a love of water and our city, they formed the 501c3 PURE Initiative. This initiative is dedicated to cleaning, upholding, and reviving the water in Tampa Bay to be swimmable again.

Living in Florida means people LOVE being on or in the water. Whether it is boating, fishing, kayaking, paddle
boarding, or swimming, people are conscious of the surrounding water quality. With a hyper-local strategy,
The PURE Initiative plans to clean and educate the community in Tampa Bay.
Starting with the Hillsborough River and surrounding waterways, we will organize clean-ups on land and water.
As the PURE Initiative grows with local clean-ups and educational classes, our focus will expand well beyond Tampa Bay and Florida.
