I am fundraising to clean the ocean and for a DECA Community Giving Project!

Hi! My name is Scarlett Tolan, and for my DECA project this year I decided to fund raise to help clean the ocean!

DECA is the business club at my school where students participate in events that prepare them to be future entrepreneurs and leaders. This year I'm participating in the "Community Giving Project" event where participants aim to raise funds or collect donations for a charity or a cause. 

As I was brainstorming potential causes to support, I watched a video in my business class about the waste problem in the ocean. I learned that there are 5 major patches of waste in the ocean. One of these patches is between the United States and Hawaii and is twice the size of Texas. The Ocean Cleanup’s mission is to remove 90% of floating ocean plastic by 2040.  

Learning about this issue was a call to action for me to do something, and The Ocean Cleanup's mission perfectly aligned with what I am passionate about supporting.

Would you kindly consider making any donation you can to support my fundraiser? Please tell your family and friends about my campaign. I would really appreciate it if you could help me get the word out. The impact increases with the number of people who are aware. 

Thank you in advance for your generosity; it means a lot!

My Updates

Event in Aspen!

Thursday 4th Dec
Thank you to everyone who came to my stand at Lululemon in Aspen on Black Friday! A big thanks to everyone that donated and also to everyone who stopped to have a conversation about cleaning our ocean! I would like to give a big shout out to Jonathan and Jackie for letting me have my stand outside Lululemon and for all of their help. I would also like to thank Jared at White Knight Marketing Design and Print for his in kind donation of printed flyers and posters. Because I have almost hit my next fundraising goal I am going to raise it again. Thank you to everyone who has supported me!

We Met Our Goal!

Friday 14th Nov
Thank you to everyone who has donated to this project—I am so grateful! Since I still have over a month left to fundraise, I have decided to increase my goal to $2,000. I have an event coming up that will hopefully help me reach this milestone. Thank you again to everyone who has donated or supported me in any way. I am proud of the impact this project will have on cleaning the ocean!

Thank you to my Sponsors

I hope this reaches a lot of people. Where I live, it hasn’t snowed in 5 years or at least not enough to make the snow stay. On Sunday it started snowing, we had 10 cm snow on the ground. I have forgotten how much I loved winter because the last few years weren’t able to show it in its true beauty. I want to help do something against climate change even if I’m not Elon musk who could do it by him self. I want animals be able to live and nature return to its former beauty.
