Giving Tuesday

Plastic Ocean Project is urgently raising funds this Giving Tuesday to purchase a reliable vehicle that will help us move trash from cleanups, transport Trees4Trash™ saplings, and carry our dedicated volunteers, staff, and supplies to where they’re needed most. For years, we’ve borrowed trucks, relied on personal cars, and made countless small trips to haul the heavy load of change. Now, it’s time for POP to have a ride of its own!
​
Why it Matters
• More Cleanups, Less Waste Left Behind: A vehicle lets us remove more trash from local beaches, waterways, and parks — faster and more efficiently.
• Plant More Trees, Reduce More Carbon: Our Trees4Trash™ program trades pollution for reforestation. With reliable transport, we can plant and deliver thousands more trees across coastal communities.
• Empower Our Volunteers: POP runs on people power! This vehicle will help us reach remote cleanup sites and events safely with the tools, supplies, and team needed to make a difference.
