Hello! I absolutely adore everything about the ocean, that is why I've decided to go to school to become a marine biologist. From the diversity of beautiful colors in the ocean, how could you not want to spend your days researching everything you can about it?! When I'm not in the ocean, you can find me trying to save insects from drowning or trying to help animals in need. Ocean pollution is a huge factor on why animals have been dying. I will help anyway I can to help save the lives of animals. That is why I decided I would pick up cigarette butts at festivals. In my profile picture, I am holding a bag full of cigarette butts.  When it rains, cigarette butts travel through the sewers and into the ocean. I hate to see our mistakes of littering affect the lives of ocean life. With that being said, I would love an opportunity to be able to study abroad in Bonaire. I really want to dig deep as to how much pollution effects marine life. The semester in Bonaire would be the perfect opportunity! This is where I need your help! The total cost for the semester in Bonaire is $15,850. A small donation would mean the world!
