Antarctic and Southern Ocean Coalition

In honor of our friend and my partner, Pete Hassinger, please join me in support of the preservation of penguins in Antarctica.  Pete was especially at home in two places:  in the air and in the water.  Penguins are the only species that, literally, fly through water.  Penguins are the symbol of loyalty, devotion, and adaptability and inspire people to dive deeper into their dreams. Antarctica, to see the penguins, was one of the few remaining places on the planet Pete wanted to visit.  Pete passed away on November 23rd, 2021 of natural causes, and this page is a way of recognizing his 'penguin-esque' commitment to enduring love, strength in life's hard moments, and unity.  100% of your donation will go to ASOC, which works to protect the vulnerable penguins that make Antarctica home.
