TouchTanksForKids.org is a non-profit organization that educates children about ocean conservation through hands-on experiences with touch tanks. Count Sharcula is a viral marketing campaign created by the organization to raise awareness about ocean pollution. The campaign aims to "bite" one million people by getting them to donate and spread information about the organization's mission to educate children and reduce plastic waste in oceans.
