Help Deep Blue Cleanup install 2 new seabins

Deep Blue Cleanup is Canadian Charity on a mission to get plastic pollution out of our waterways before they make their way into our oceans!  We have deployed 7 trash trapping devices since we began in 2020, and we want to deploy two more by summer 2022!   Trash trapping devices are essentially engineered floating trash bins, with a pump.    
 
Approximately 10 million tons of plastic are dumped into our oceans every year. At this rate, there will be more plastic than fish in the ocean by 2050.
 
Help Deep Blue Cleanup reverse this trend by donating to our seabin fund! Just one seabin captures 44lbs of plastic per day.
 
Deep Blue Cleanup is also working with elementary, high school, and university students to find solutions to plastic pollution and conduct research on the types of plastics found in our waterways.
 
Each seabin costs ~ $10,000. Your donations are greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for supporting this critical community initiative.
