Ways To Give

Be part of this fight

Donors are essential to our fight to build a world where local fishers earn a sustainable income, where communities thrive, and where  coral reefs, once threatened, are teeming with life.

93% of our budget goes directly to program costs

Your gift funds conservation, community development, and innovative programmes help the planet, one Marine Protected Area at a time, one fisher village at a time.

Blue finance operates under the trade name Blue Alliance. This change reflects our belief in the power of collaboration with communities, Governments, technical and tourism partners, and our strategic funding partners.

Make a contribution today, and let's support sustainable livelihoods and thriving oceans.

Blue finance, operating under the trademark ‘Blue Alliance’ Alliance encourages donors to seek professional legal and financial advice prior to making a gift in a form other than cash; prospective donors should understand that the organisation will not provide advice directly to the donor, because that would pose a conflict of interest.
