Time for a Roadtrip!!!
Dear Friends,
veghippy is announcing the "Big Trip 2014" to gather stories from across the United States about sustainable living and environmentalism. We'll post pictures, interviews, and coming soon...videos! of all the latest developments in technology and the many creative solutions Americans across the country have come up with to solve the problems in sustainability and proper Earth management. We're putting it all together right here on one website.
Join us on this epic journey as Sunshine transforms her family's big green van into...the "veghippy van"!
Sunshine begins her journey from her home town in New York to travel to TEN major cities:
1) Chicago IL
2) Boulder CO
3) Taos NM
4) Sedona AZ
5) Los Angeles CA
6) Austin TX
7) New Orleans LA
8) Atlanta GA
9) Asheville NC
10) Washington DC
But she needs your help! As you can see on the map, it will take over $1000 in gas fare to make the trip! Not including tolls! Sunshine is asking for donations to help her on her very first cross country trip.
Please visit the YouCaring Fundraiser website to donate to the Big Trip 2014.
"I can't do it without you!!! Please donate so I can make this trip successful. I am so excited to see what is happening in the other cities across the nation and people's efforts to change our energy systems and become more environmentally sustainable. Whether it's on the individual level or amongst small businesses or hopefully on the greater political level, I want to understand what is truly happening in our country's consciousness as we are shifting to 'Going Green.' Even just a $20 donation today will help me fill up half a tank! I appreciate your help!" -Sunshine
Note: Sunshine struggled with the idea of driving a gas vehicle across country because obviously it goes against being environmentally sustainable! But due to lack of funds she found no other way to do this trip. Sunshine believes that the project will gain more awareness and attention toward living more sustainably that the environmental effects of her drive will be recovered from her efforts. Sunshine also hopes that one day the United States will have a better infrastructure to support things like electric vehicles to make trips across country! Thank you for your understanding.
The veghippy van will start its engine on the Big Trip 2014 in early September!
