On an average day, it’s estimated that 140,000 pounds of toxic chemicals enter Puget Sound, causing excruciating suffering to plant and marine life. * Transient and southern resident Orcas are considered to be “among the most PCB contaminated mammals on the planet.”* People for Puget Sound greatly appreciates Shan’s financial generosity and invigorating efforts to raise awareness of the imminent–but reversible– harm facing Puget Sound.

The Eugene Weekly says Shan’s song, “Tiny Planet”, “offers a deeper view of a talented young musician- Shan evokes Sarah McLachlan at her most reflective.” The song is about the sea and its interconnection with the evolution of mankind. The song was born on the shores of Puget Sound during a blustery winter rainstorm. Shan watched drainpipe toxic stew gush into the body of water she loves so much and the words and music began to stir. She knew she wanted to help preserve Puget Sound and its indispensable role in the region’s marine life, culture, and commerce.
