Since marine life are suffering from the water pollution, such as plastic waste and toxic ingredient. We want to save the marine life from the pollution by educating and promoting the ideas of cleaning the sea. Besides, we want our students to acquire skills of making organic soap, as well as organising a workshop in making soap for the public audience, and raising fund as the result.
SOAP is also the initial of:
S - Saving
O - Ocean
A - Animal
P - Project
Inspiration came from
The idea came after watching the pacific garbage patch by our group students. They want to help the marine life away from suffering by toxic and waste by human activities. After the discussion, the kids agreed that education and promotion is the best way to arouse the public on the marine life issue in Hong Kong. On the other hand, we hope our students to learn some skills such as making art craft through the project. In advance, organising teaching workshop is also a good experience for the kids. That's why we decide to make soap workshop to the publics, and eventually getting some funding to raise to some cleaning ocean NGO in helping Hong Kong marine life.
What social problems do you solve?
In Hong Kong, the Environmental Protection Department (EPD) will assess and rate the cleanliness condition of the coastal sites using a five-level Shoreline Cleanliness Grading system. We want to help Hong Kong marine life by cleaning the ocean and educating the message of stop polluting the ocean to the public.
