Help Chris P Help White Sharks!

My name is Chris Panetta, and I'm in 5th grade at The Shipley School in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania.  In 5th grade, we each do a project for "Think, Care, Act".  I have always loved sharks, and for my project, I want to support The Atlantic White Shark Conservancy.  My goal is to raise $500, which is enough to purchase an acoustic tag to track a white shark in the Atlantic.  If I raise more than that, AWSC will be able to do even more to teach people about white sharks.  That would be awesome!  If we raise $1000, it will cover the additional cost of a buoy AND we get the perk of naming a tagged shark!  $1500 is the cost of an acoustic receiver. The more we raise, the more AWSC can do for white sharks!

AWSC's mission is to support scientific research, improve public safety, and educate the community, to inspire conservation of Atlantic white sharks.  They even run a special STEM-based education program just for girls, how cool is that?

Donations can be made now until January 9.  Without sharks, our oceans will die.  We need to do everything we can to teach people about these amazing creatures so that they stop being afraid of them and care about them more.

I love to draw sharks and ocean animals.  Each person who gives $15 or more to my campaign will get a hand-drawn ocean scene that I will make just for them.  I am also hosting a thank you party for local donors on December 17 from 1-4pm.

Thank you for joining me in supporting shark conservation and awareness!
