Are you just as tired as me seeing our oceans and beaches polluted with trash caused by humans? Dirty beaches and trashy oceans are becoming such a common problem in today's world when it can be easily prevented. Helpless animals are dying and losing thier habitats due to humans selfish behaviors. I will be traveling to Costa Rica over my winter break to help put a stop to this issue. I will be walking along numerous beaches in Montezuma picking up all the trash that has been dumped. Not only will I help with the trash problem, but I will be assisting in the sea turtle hatchery. Sea turtles are in great danger of becoming extinct and face many great dangers when trying to make it to sea after being hatched. I want to help make a difference in this part of their journey. Please consider greatly to donating to my fundraiser so that we can influence others and be the change we all desperatley need!
