The "Stow It-Don't Throw It" project works to mobilize youth to protect marine wildlife from the dangers of improperly disposed of monofilament fishing line, which can take up to 600 years to break down in the environment. Fishing line entanglement injures or kills many marine organisms every year, including dolphins, sea turtles, manatees, sea lions, whales, and birds. Youth involved in the "Stow It-Don't Throw It" Project work to assemble and distribute personal-sized fishing line recycling bins to anglers and boaters. These bins are made out of recycled tennis ball containers, and are designed to serve as an intermediate step for anglers to safely store their used fishing line before they can later get it to a larger monofilament recycling bin and properly dispose of it. The program also works to engage youth in preventing plastic pollution and other forms of marine debris, and provides them with support to launch their own ocean conservation projects. We're excited to have the opportunity to raise funds for this program through the Anti-Bottle project, while helping to prevent plastic pollution by encouraging the public to purchase reusable water bottles! more

THP Anti-Bottle Campaign

OUR MISSION As a group, we have to goals; to LEARN and to DO. What do we mean by that? We learn by attending workshops, listening to guest speakers, and visiting NGOs. We get to learn how these organizations function, and we are able to model ourselves after them. Then, with our new knowledge, we go out and do something. This can be small, like holding a fundraiser for an orphanage, or big, like collecting shoes for an entire mountain community. What is important, and different, is that this is entirely student driven. For example this is how we operate; first, we chose a topic. Let’s say the topic is Global Health. We contact any one or any organization we can in order to learn more about the topic; in this case, maybe Red Cross or USAID. Then we go out and do something; volunteer with a medical brigade, or hold a fundraiser to benefit a hospital. This way, we are not only experienced in a certain area, but learned as well. more
