Join the Healthy Ocean Coalition in Celebrating Our 15th Birthday!

For 15 years, the Healthy Ocean Coalition has been dedicated to preserving and protecting the ocean, ensuring it remains vibrant and healthy for generations to come. From advocating for just federal ocean policies to equipping community advocates with skills to raise their powerful voices, we've made significant strides in safeguarding our precious marine ecosystems.


Why Your Support Matters

The health of the ocean is crucial to the health of our planet. The ocean regulates our climate, provides food and livelihoods for millions, is home to countless species of marine life, and provides recreation and connection for all who visit. However, it is also shouldering the weight of the climate crisis, suffering from biodiversity loss, and feeling the impacts of corporate exploitation and inequitable conservation. Our work is more critical than ever, and we need your help to continue our mission.


Our Achievements Over the Past 15 Years

  • Marine Conservation Policies: We've successfully campaigned for the establishment of marine protected areas and ensuring the federal government develops more equitable and just ocean conservation policy.
  • Community-Centered Network: We’ve fostered space for advocates to connect, grow, support each other, and collaborate to advance ocean conservation and environmental justice. 
  • Reducing Barriers: We’ve created unique programs to diversify the ocean conservation community and broaden the ocean conservation movement by reducing social and financial barriers to participate in ocean advocacy.

How You Can Help

To celebrate our 15th birthday, we're asking for a special gift: a $15 donation. Your contribution will support our ongoing projects and initiatives, ensuring we can continue to protect the ocean for the next 15 years and beyond.
