Can you believe that spring is just around the corner? We’re still wrapping our heads around how 2021 has flown by so quickly already! One thing we know for sure is we are so excited for the work that lies ahead of us as we push to launch Blue Schools Curriculum in 40 K-5 Oregon classrooms. Lessons are being completed this month and we're already hearing back from educators to fine tune lesson plans before launching this fall!
A huge part of our mission at Ocean Blue Project is educating our youth and giving them the tools to help save our oceans. We all have a role to play in ocean conservation, and we believe that the younger kids learn, the better. Our Blue Schools Program will bring STEM experiences to K-12 classrooms, connecting the dots between climate change and the ocean while teaching them to be stewards of the ocean. We help kids make a holistic connection between their own environment and the health of the local water supply, wildlife, and our one world ocean.
Starting today, March 8th, the GlobalGiving Little by Little Campaign will match your donation of up to $50 at 50% which directly helps us reach 17,000 students across 750 classrooms in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. through interactive education surrounding ocean conservation.
We hope you’ll continue to invest in our Blue Schools Program so we can continue to teach kids all over the world the importance of saving our seas. By empowering future ocean advocates, you are investing in a cleaner future for all. Making a recurring monthly donation of even $10 is enough to send a new teacher 9 marine science lessons for all their students every single month. Creating a fundraiser or sharing our project with friends and family is another way to support.
Enjoy the transition into spring! 2021 is already feeling lighter than 2020 thanks to you.
