Our Work

We are the official nonprofit partner to the National Marine Sanctuary System, and we directly support programs and projects at individual sanctuaries, across the System, and in the watersheds that connect to them. Our programs center around science and conservation, connecting people and communities to sanctuaries, and creating the next generation of ocean stewards through in- and out-of-school education.
