Meet Mya, an enthusiastic and dedicated Earth Ranger. Not only did she help protect the beluga whale with a cool fundraiser, Mya and her family recycle as much as possible and also reuse lots of items that Mya and her sister use to make crafts.
Here’s Mya to tell us about her fundraiser for the beluga whale.
Hi! My name is Mya. I am 11 years old, and I love animals, especially dragonflies! I love singing, drawing, colouring, dancing and nature! I dream of becoming a vet or a teacher. I love the Earth Rangers website, and spend lots of my time looking at articles!
My friend introduced me to Earth Rangers. I first heard about it at school, when she was in the newspaper. She was one of the winners of the Whales, Trails, And Polar Bear Tales contest! She told me about Earth Rangers, I loved the idea!!
When I looked on the website, I thought of a plan! I knew that I had toys that are put away, abandoned. So, why not have a garage sale! I could sell the toys, and then donate all the money that I earned! My mom suggested a bake sale, so I thought, let’s do both! My sister and I set up the sale, with help from my mom. We spent an evening and an afternoon selling tasty treats and toys.
In the end, I raised $150! I had to pay my mom $20 for the baking treats, so I ended up with $130! I went straight to the website and donated it all for the beluga whales! I even made a sash for my pins!
Amazing Mya! When we last spoke with Mya she was working on the Battery Blitz Mission and had this to say, “Try and recycle as much as possible so there will be less garbage ruining the Earth!”
Thank you Mya for sharing your story and for helping to protect our planet.
