Clean up the Caribbean
Since the start of the Submarine With Wheels adventure, we have always noticed the shocking amount of rubbish dumped literally anywhere. Seeing the damage that plastic litter causes for land and marine life and the lack of education about rubbish in South America, provoked us to take litter into our own hands and start ‘Clean up the Caribbean’ Campaign.
Why "Clean up the Caribbean?
Watch the video below to see.
" We are enjoying the effects we are having on local communities. To pass on our knowledge and educate to pick up rubbish and help the environment that we all live in. "
HOW CAN WE HELP?
We believe litter is everyone’s responsibility.
We want to reach as many people as possible, influencing younger generations, locals and travellers to unite forces and make a difference!
‘Clean up the Caribbean’ helps to promote positive rubbish disposal and educates people to not just walk past rubbish but also pick it up.
WHATS THE DEAL?
With ‘Clean up the Caribbean’, every $5 donation we receive towards our go-fund-me, we will pick up 1 bag of rubbish.
​
We are fortunate to be able to travel, it lets us see other people’s situations and be more humble and grateful for everything we’ve got. Now its time to give something back.
​
We are hoping to create a ripple effect. Educate everyone to be litter conscious and leave no trace in our environment.

WHERE DO THE DONATIONS GO?
The funds raised were used to ship our bus across the Darien gap between Panama and Colombia.
​
In June 2018, we shipped our bus from South America to Central America using a cargo RORO service for $3800 AUD.
We raised 80% of the costs and this was only possible due to the kind support of our fans.
We want to say a huge
THANK YOU!
To all those who donated to our campaign. We were able to pick up 525 bags of rubbish and leave a positive impact on the enviroment.
