LegaSea Circle

You can help safeguard the ocean's splendor for future generations. Join the LegaSea Circle today.

LegaSea Circle members play an important role in safeguarding the ocean's health and abundance for the future. A planned gift to Oceana ensures that we can continue our science-based and innovative campaigns against oil and plastic pollution, overfishing, destruction of habitats such as coral reefs, and threats to endangered wildlife including whales, sharks and sea turtles. As climate change takes its toll, bequests to Oceana can help us increase the resilience of marine ecosystems and protect coastal communities from erosion of their shorelines and loss of their livelihoods.

We hope you will consider joining the dedicated group of supporters who have named Oceana as a beneficiary in their wills, trusts, retirement accounts, donor advised funds, or life insurance policies. You can become a LegaSea Circle member at any stage in your life, and you can alter your bequest as your circumstances change.
