Past Projects
Sea Save Foundation increases awareness about ocean conservation issues and executes programs that will help protect marine ecosystems. We have used the strength of the Internet to execute many of our projects and have found that social media makes it easy and cost effective to network with ocean enthusiasts and volunteers around the world. Some of our programs have been completed on board expedition vessels and other while in our homes. We have worked with student groups and introduced high school students the fundamentals of ocean videography, story telling and philanthropy. We have launched relationships between schools in Grand Cayman and Wisconson and we have watched as physical distances disappeared, friendships grew and understanding of ocean challengers came into focus.
We are proud finalists of the Myspace Impact Award, the American Express Members' Project and the Facebook Chase Community Giving Award. Supporters from all over the world held Wave Raves and awareness campaigns to help drive home these online competitions and learned about oceans issues in the process.
Below is a list of a few of our past programs and campaigns. We hope you enjoy reviewing our work and feel that our volunteers have made a strong contribution to ocean awaeness.

Educational Websites 
|
The Internet plays a key role in sharing information and educating students of all ages. Sea Save Foundation created the only website focused on the pacific humpback whale. The pages of this site describes the biology of these whales, the economic strength of whaling tourism vs. the waste of rampant whale harvesting, in addition, a kids' section also makes learning "whale basics" fun.

Image and Video Database 
|
Students and teachers can tap into our image/video database and incorporate them into school projects, and videos. While current copyright law allows "fair usage" i.e. the use of any image or copyrighted material for limited use within the parameters of a classroom, the Sea Save Foundation encourages students to use these images while continuing to enhance the current database.

Special Projects 
|
Imaging Foundation is occasionally asked to produce special projects which coincide with the mission of the organization. On a recent trip to Cocos Island we utilized team skills to create a visual log of the effect of season and temperature on Island marine fauna. Cocos Island Marine Status |

Each expedition log provides anecdotal information about our expeditions. While not created as teaching tools, these daily accounts discuss the flora and fauna encountered at each location as well as local culture and reflections. Past Expeditions |
