Help Support the Blue Ocean Society for Marine Conservation!

March 11, 2014 - March 13, 2014

Blue Ocean Society for Marine Conservation of Portsmouth is one of only twenty charities in the country to be selected for MooseJaw and Patagonia’s Crowdrise $10,000 Charity Thing. Blue Ocean is the only participant from the entire New England region to be selected. To the charity that raises the most money Moosejaw and Patagonia are giving a $5,000 donation, $3,000 for second place, and $2,000 to third place. The challenge runs until 11:59 AM on March 13.

One of Blue Ocean’s goals this year is to purchase a new 65 foot life-size inflatable whale. They will use this when they do educational programs at schools in the area teaching students about marine life.

This is one of those opportunities where a small donation can turn into a major gift.  To donate please go to the Blue Ocean site:

Blue Ocean’s Mission is to protect marine mammals in the Gulf of Maine through education, research and conservation.  As part of our Mission we have regular, year round beach clean-ups from Massachusetts to South Portland.  When you’re sitting on a clean beach this summer, be sure to thank The Blue Ocean Society.
