Plas­tic Whale Foundation

After a suc­cess­ful edi­tion in ​‘22, the Plas­tic Whale Foun­da­tion has been asked to be part of the offi­cial pro­gram 2023 in the week lead­ing up to the Wereld­havenda­gen week­end. As a Foun­da­tion, we focus pri­mar­i­ly on groups 7 & 8. Our expe­ri­ence is chil­dren of this age have an open view of the world and they are involved, curi­ous and empa­thet­ic. The schools are select­ed by the Wereld­havenda­gen. Giv­en the lim­it­ed bud­get of schools and par­ents, we seek fund­ing in order to pro­vide the edu­ca­tion­al pro­gram for free, which includes a plas­tic fish­ing trip on our boats (sloops) made from plas­tic PET bot­tles saved from the waters dur­ing pre­vi­ous trips. By being part of the pro­gram of such a major event in Europe’s largest port city, we show the impor­tance of the top­ic of plas­tic pol­lu­tion to a broad­er crowd.
