Giving Tuesday 2025

Help NMEA make known the world of water, both fresh and salt today as a part of Giving Tuesday 2025! 
By giving on this global day of generosity, you help NMEA support the programs and people who advance ocean and aquatic literacy every day. Each donation helps fund scholarships, grow the USA Blue Schools network, facilitate NMEA’s global ocean literacy efforts, and support NMEA’s Ocean Decade Actions that move us closer to “the science we need for the ocean we want.”

Your gift makes a real difference
Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to support NMEA’s Annual Giving Campaign. Whether you give $20, $60, $100, or any amount that fits your budget, you help keep marine and aquatic education accessible, equitable, and grounded in strong science.

Celebrating 50 years
As we gear up for our 50th annual NMEA conference in 2026, help us reflect on the ways NMEA and its members have enriched the lives of countless people and helped millions better understand and appreciate our global waterways. Please join us in the celebration and give before midnight on December 2 to further this important work!
