Support Salty Science

We are rowing across an ocean to raise $500,000 to train the next generation of scientists who will develop solutions to global ocean challenges.

Rowing the Atlantic will be a serious test of our mental and physical endurance, but even getting to the starting line is a feat of its own. We are committing over two years of our lives to meticulous organizing, training, and fundraising ahead of the race start.

We can’t do this alone. Will you help us on our mission to support a healthy ocean?

* ALL DONATIONS ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE *

THREE WAYS TO DONATE

DONATE ANY AMOUNT

We can’t accomplish our goals without your support. Donations of any amount are welcome – every little bit helps!

DONATE ANY AMOUNT

SPONSOR A MILE FOR $100

CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP

The race receives substantial media attention every year, and partnering with our team provides a unique opportunity to promote your brand. Our boat will showcase the logos of our sponsors, serving as a traveling billboard with an international reach. We offer a variety of sponsorship options, and are happy to work with you to develop a plan that suits your goals.
