You already know that, don’t you?

We’re trying to educate citizens in Dana Point and surrounding cities
that our ocean is in danger due to pollution.
And much of that pollution can be eliminated if we all remember to keep
our streets and sidewalks clean, to avoid unnecessary watering and runoff
into the sewers and then into the harbor and our ocean.

Since you are already aware of the problem, you can really help.
I hope you’ll join our new organization and our goal of helping
clean up our ocean—actually, your ocean and harbor.

We’re starting with our kids, educating them to the problem,
and relying on them to help educate their parents and siblings.
We believe we need a long-term, multigenerational effort if our
mutual goal of cleaning up our ocean is to be achieved.

For only $40 we can teach a 5th grade student about this problem,
and teach him or her what we must do to help solve it. If you can
help us with only one scholarship, you will still be making a major
contribution to the future of an entire generation of youngsters.
We are striving for 300 scholarships per year. After gaining this
experience at the Ocean Institute, they will take this information
home to share with family members and neighbors. Education is the
key to the cessation of pollution. See the kids in action by clicking
on Scholarships, and Cleanups.

We are also eager to promote the installation of smokers’ outposts
throughout Dana Point. These outposts will take the place of ugly,
inefficient sand ashtrays. Click on Smokers Outposts to see the
Landmark bronze cast aluminum model. We need at least seventy-five
of these in Dana Point, just to handle the restaurants, fast food
outlets and coffee shops, places where people dispose of butts on
the ground—only to have them float down the storm drain system to the ocean.
Please
give
as generously as you can to this worthy cause. Many thanks.
