We're looking for a storyboard to join us in our campaign to clean the ocean. In May, 2018 we'll have the world's first Children's Clean Ocean Summit at the United Nations in Vienna.
As part of our No Last Whale project, we are currently creating an app and need a short animated film for both social media about the project and to introduce the app--which itself facilitates our letter-writing campaign. The app will help inspire children around the world to write hand-written letters to their government representative pleading with them to support cleaning the ocean by:
- Joining the UN's Cleanseas campaign
- Ban plastic bags
- Other goals will be decided by the children at their UN Summit
Can you help us?
Please see our web site for much more information, including pics of the giant plastic humpback whale sculpture the children built:

Mission Statement
Our core mission is to give children everywhere a voice about our planet's environment, a mission we currently approach through our mobile app development, our work with the United Nations, and our exhibitions. Integral to that mission is providing teachers with a platform to deeply engage their students about plastic ocean pollution, climate change and the critically related issue of sustainability. Why? Children deserve a voice in this world. And empowering them with one may just be the help we obviously so desperately need.
Description
Kids Save Ocean began in 2016 when teacher Peder Hill helped 12-year-olds build a 15-foot whale from trash to bring attention to ocean plastic pollution. Dissatisfied by their inability to have any impact, his efforts expanded to face-painting, exhibitions, the Children’s Clean Ocean Summit at the UN, and the Fatechanger mobile app. Along the way a global network of volunteers joined him, all drawn to the same simple powerful idea: give kids a voice.
The Urgent Need for Sustainability
Education is key to enabling us to transform our world into a sustainable one. Sustainability, however, remains unintegrated into curricula across the globe. Teachers everywhere, students everywhere, need powerful tools today to understand and develop a sustainable world for tomorrow. The future depends on us. There’s no time left to tiptoe.
A Unique Model - Learning Tools with Teeth
Kids Save Ocean’s Fatechanger app and its innovative teaching and learning resources will help fill both these critical voids, creating a platform focused on the visual and visceral issue of ocean plastic pollution (a topic directly connected to sustainability) to deeply engage kids and give them a global voice to impact these challenges - initially through facilitating and tracking a global letter-writing campaign, then through including them informally and eventually formally in the United Nations.
Volunteers power Kids Save Ocean. Please join us.
