The Marine Debris Foundation leads efforts to eliminate marine debris and plastic pollution through innovative grantmaking, effective advocacy, and strategic partnerships. It envisions a planet free from marine debris and plastic pollution, with values centered around environmental justice, inclusivity, collaboration, solution orientation, scientific integrity, and transparency.
The broad goal of the Marine Debris Foundation's Marine Debris Grants is to tackle the issue of marine debris through partnerships, initiatives, and creative solutions. These grants support projects aimed at eliminating marine debris and plastic pollution, particularly those that complement the efforts of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Marine Debris Program. Projects should focus on one or more areas related to marine debris/plastic pollution: reduction, prevention, removal, and assessment. The initiative strives to strengthen global efforts against the adverse impacts of marine debris on the economy, environment, and maritime safety. Proposals are evaluated based on environmental impact, human health and environmental justice, innovation, feasibility, solution orientation, sustainability, and organizational capacity. Grants may reach up to $30,000 per award, with a call-for-proposals process determining annual awards for projects lasting 12 to 24 months, including potential multi-year projects.
