Help Lily Study Marine Conservation Abroad

Donation protected
Hello! My name is Lily Rice and I am  fundraising to Study Abroad or do an Internship Abroad. I am currently at OSU majoring in marine biology, a topic that I am very passionate about. I have always loved the ocean but it wasn't until high school that I realized how crucial it is that the ocean needs to be protected. I got very interested in the issue of plastic pollution in oceans and ever since then I have been a strong advocate for marine life. I share information on social media platforms of ways that people can reduce their plastic usage and ways that people can better have an impact on the environment. My Instagram is @lils.rice where you can go through my "earth" highlight to see ways that you can become more sustainable and get introduced to some products that benefit the ocean. I am also currently doing research at OSU that looks into the issue of coral bleaching, a devastating affect on corals that is caused by climate change and many other human actions.

As an advocate for the ocean environment and marine animals that live within it, I am eager to complete an internship that focuses on marine conservation. Doing internships abroad can be very expensive but with the funds that I earn I will able to become educated on ways to conserve marine life and be able to further educate others. It is my dream career to work with an organization that focuses on sea turtle conservation, and an internship will help me to gain the experience and education needed to get me closer to that dream. I have about a year (fall 2021) until I am planning to study abroad and I would appreciate any donations and support that you are able to offer. Supporting me through the fundraiser in turn will help to support the ocean environment. Thank you!
