Give Big is Here!

Salish Sea sustainability is at the heart of our mission and programs.

VISION: A healthy marine environment as defined by diverse natural ecosystems and sustainable human communities.
MISSION: Sound Water Stewards are trained volunteers working in and around Island County for a healthy, sustainable marine environment through education, science, and stewardship.

Dear Friends and Supporters,
When you contribute to Sound Water Stewards during GiveBIG, you are helping make it possible to:

• Reach thousands (of all ages) through education events and activities that strengthen a connection to and passion for the health of marine life,
• Provide hands-on experiences of measuring, observing or learning details related to ecosystem health,
• Train 50 new Stewards annually who bring new energy and fresh perspectives. 

SWS new website is an amazing resource describing the many projects where Stewards are the “boots on the ground” supporting a range of agencies. 

See our impact:

• 13 community science research projects
• 8 education programs 
• numerous stewardship actions
• and featuring a marine species identification guide

SWS is excited to participate in GiveBig in 2022. Please give now to increase the impact of our work.

Thank you,
The Board and Volunteers of Sound Water Stewards of Island County (Whidbey and Camano Islands)
