  • •What problems do I see in my community or the world?
  • •What environmental or social issue makes me want to take action?
  • •How did I get inspired? (Like Arlian with coral spawning!)
  • •What change do I want to see in the world?

Write Your Mission Statement:

A clear statement of what you want to achieve. For example:

"My mission is to reduce plastic waste in my school by creating a recycling program and educating students about ocean pollution."
