Save The Waves

A Civic Engagement Project

Our Project Goal

Our goal is to spread awareness about plastics and trash in our oceans by selling stickers and metal straw sets designed by Haylie. The stickers were sold at $1 and $2. The metal straw sets were sold at $5 for two metal straws, a straw cleaner, and a bag. We also partnered with SOLVE Organization to do a beach clean-up at Bob Straub State Park near Pacific City. Around 25 students traveled with us to the coast and engaged in our beach clean-up. Around seven of the SOLVE bags were filled with trash and we coordinated with the state park on where the trash would be picked up. We also collected around $100 profit and donated it to SOLVE.
