Ocean Discovery Institute prides itself on providing our programs at no cost to our participants. This 100% tuition-free model ensures that all the young people in our school-shed can seize all of the opportunities we provide. It also means that we rely on the generosity of many individuals, foundations, corporations, and government agencies to ensure we have the resources needed to support this work. We ask you to join our community of support and consider a gift at whatever level is most meaningful to you.

Naming Opportunities
Our Living Lab was made possible through the generosity of many donors.
