​
The Salish Sea is a majestic wonderland, teeming with diverse marine life and offering endless opportunities for exploration and discovery.
​
However, many kids in our community lack access to this incredible natural resource, limiting their exposure to the wonders of the sea and the importance of conservation. Because of generous donors like you, in 2023, we were able to award over $20,000 in scholarships to underserved students in Anacortes, Mt. Vernon, Burlington, and Sedro-Woolley.
​
These scholarships have allowed young learners to explore the unique and awe-inspiring marine environment of the Salish Sea, broadening their horizons and igniting a passion for science and conservation.
​
We are dedicated to providing these same opportunities to students in 2024.
Your donation today will continue to help us provide these same opportunities in 2024 that bring kids to the Salish Sea, where they can experience the thrill of a boat ride, kayak, and tide pool while learning about the creatures that call this special place home.
​
By investing in these kids, you're investing in the future of our planet.
​
We are enormously grateful for the support of our village. ​Your generosity changes student lives and helps our oceans. On behalf of the future student leaders in marine conservation, thank you!
