Earth Crew was the first program MEVO founded in 2008. Back then, it wasn’t called Earth Crew it was just called MEVO. The idea was simple: bring people together and have them stop environmental problems with their own bare hands. Earth Crew has accomplished a lot. One event after another it has made a difference for the environment in New Jersey and the world.
