JARA! T-shirts-Changing the world
Liskeard, England, United Kingdom
Aim
Creating a healthier ocean for the enjoyment and benefit of all and providing positive activities for young people in Liskeard.
We
are a group of 4 young people from Liskeard who want to raise money to change the world. We have felt heartbreak from seeing images of ocean creatures suffering from the pollution of our seas. We have also felt – as we got older – that there is a real shortage of safe activities on offer for young people in Liskeard. Especially if you can’t afford the train fare to nearby places with interesting things to do.
We feel that t-shirts are both a good way to raise money but also a way of helping to raise awareness of our cause.
Rather than trying to start our own campaign we felt it would be a good idea to work with organisations who were already doing good work in this area to maximise the benefit of any money we raise.
The NMA (National Marine Aquarium) is an Ocean Conservation Charity with the vision of a world supporting a healthy Ocean to sustain all life. They have been connecting people with the Ocean for over 20 years.
Lyskerrys Youth are a local youth project who provide positive activities for young people from the town. Many of the young people who attend the project can’t afford to leave Liskeard and some of them have expressed an interest in going to the beach as a youth club activity.
Our vision is to support young people to enjoy these activities and also support ecological work that can protect our natural environment to create a healthier Ocean for the benefit and enjoyment of all. Your donation will help us to achieve these goals. it will also create the platform for a sustainable T-shirt business that can continue to raise money for good causes in the future.
JARA! are working with Real Ideas Organisation on a social enterprise project. They are undertaking this activity as part of a social enterprise qualification.
