The Foundation

Built on a for-profit standard. Directed at the public good.

American Society Holding Company is a for-profit firm that has delivered site cleaning, development, and revitalization at a commercial standard for years. Patrons kept asking for a nonprofit arm, so Clean Forward Foundation was created to meet that demand — same crews, same standard, no shareholders. We are a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit.

Founded by Sindé Tantua

Sindé lives in Marina del Rey and has watched the corridor change over the years. An accountant in Los Angeles and a developer by trade, she picks up trash along the corridor almost biweekly — and it keeps coming back. Clean Forward was started to break that cycle with bollards, planters, and a cleaner design that makes it harder for cans and litter to collect in the first place.

01

Restore

We clear, clean, and remediate neglected sites so they are safe and ready for what comes next.

02

Develop

We rebuild the physical fabric of a place — structures, landscape, lighting, and access.

03

Beautify

We finish to a standard rarely seen in public work, because dignity is in the detail.

Current Project

Marina del Rey Corridor
Beautification Project

A cleaner, safer, and more welcoming corridor — built through community partnerships and donated support, one block at a time.

01

Litter cleanup

Recurring sweeps along the corridor so debris never gets a chance to settle.

02

Bins installed

Trash and recycling receptacles placed where litter actually accumulates.

03

Safety bollards

Bollards at key points to protect pedestrians and keep vehicles off walkways.

04

Planters & flowers

Seasonal planters that beautify the corridor and discourage dumping.

Impact

A cleaner corridor,
block by block.

Remove what does not belong. Make the space safer for pedestrians and pets. Keep the waterfront corridor clear so the water itself stays the focus.

We do not promise to solve every environmental challenge. We promise to show up, clean thoroughly, and leave a site better maintained than we found it.

Give

A gift of any size restores a real place.

Individuals, families, and partners fund this work side by side. Whether you give once, give monthly, or underwrite an entire site, every contribution is directed into a block, a lot, or a park that people use the next morning.
