Why do we do it?
We know how hard it’s to navigate through all the different ocean conservation initiatives, so we decided to make it easier for people to find a project they relate to and support it, becoming the change they want to see in the Ocean.
We have created this platform, so you can get to know curated ocean conservation projects, learn more about their challenges and accompany their impact.
How do we do it?
At SeaTheFuture we gather contributions to finance ocean conservation projects around the globe in a collaborative way.
Transparency
We believe transparency is the foundation of any conservation platform.
Efficiency
We make sure every contribution is put to good use to maximize the impact of the conservation project – showing and explaining where it goes and why it matters.
Simplicity
We want to make it as simple as possible for everyone to join and participate.
• If you’re a project that wants to join our platform, know that your application process only takes 15 min to fill out.
• If you’re an ocean lover that wants to contribute and support the incredible efforts being done by the conservation projects we endorse – we have a solution for you. If you don’t see a project you want to support, please let us know and we will work towards having it as soon as possible.
We are firm believers that together we can make a difference. Choices make changes.
Our business model
We have two ways of raising funds for the conservation projects we support:
Sustainable apparel
The purchase of our products is a great way for you to show your support to the projects you love whilst helping us take our mission further.
Our sustainable collection directly supports our portfolio of conservation projects. From the retail price of each of our products we will donate a fixed amount of money to the conservation project of your choice.
Sustainability is our destination
So we carefully follow the journey of each piece of garment, from the sourcing of raw materials to the end of the product's life, all while paying close attention to both packaging and labels. We assess in detail the life cycle of every product, so that each one has its own story to tell and its own purpose – to directly support one species or ecosystem.
Direct contributions
Another key revenue stream comes from direct contributions to the conservation projects we feature on our platform. Of the money people trust us with, 85% goes directly to conservation projects, supporting them in their efforts* and people can always trace it. The remaining 15% will be used to cover operational costs such as content creation for the project’s profiles and for extra visibility. We believe that the more we tell their story and share their mission, the more people we will gather around their cause, supporting them actively.
