GIVING

It takes a collaborative approach to steward the finite marine resources of our fast-changing planet. 

With your gift, you join us in relaying knowledge about our oceans and the species inhabiting them, unlocking the catalytic potential of data accumulated by the world’s leading scientific institution for marine and coastal conservation. 

We have one planet, one grand territory to call home. Help us improve its capacity to sustain.

CORE Support

While we are part of UC San Diego and Scripps Institution of Oceanography and enjoy access to campus facilities and resources, CMBC does not receive institutional funding for our core staff or programs. Your gift helps us grow essential capacity for our work.
