Why Give?
The Ocean Fest Grants Program
Since our inaugural festival in 2019, Ocean Fest has awarded over $140,000 in grants to likeminded environmental nonprofits who share our passion for ocean conservation. These grants have gone toward efforts including marine debris removal, fighting offshore drilling, protecting critical habitats, and educating the next generation of ocean stewards, to name a few.
Coastal Impact
Ocean Fest is more than a one-day celebration. Your support fuels beach cleanups, community partnerships, volunteer initiatives, and conservation projects that create a healthier coastline year-round. Every gift helps turn passion into action for Mother Ocean.
Community Education
Your donation helps inspire the next generation of ocean stewards through hands-on educational experiences, interactive exhibits, and family-friendly programming. By making conservation engaging and accessible, we’re building a community that understands, appreciates, and protects our coast.
