Your Maritime Sustainability Support is Needed

by admin

NAMEPA (North American Marine Environment Protection Association) was founded 15 years ago, recognizing the nexus between the shipping industry’s desire to focus attention on protecting the marine environment and society’s demand that it do so.

We started with 33 members and have grown to over 200 sharing a common mission to Save Our Seas. In doing so we have created opportunities for industry to convene on important issues, developed a robust educational platform for seafarers, port communities and students, promoted our industry, and acted as a portal to conservation and educational groups to better understand what we do and our importance to global society.

Today, we call it sustainability, adding social and governance issues to those of the environment. At NAMEPA, we also look to the future—of our planet, our people and our “profit” (which, in NAMEPA’s case, means having enough funds to continue to grow our programs and expand our reach). In our 15 years, we have held over 50 events, and reached 1,115,000 seafarers and students.

As we celebrate our 15th year of industry collaboration and networking, seafarer training, student education and raising awareness about the value proposition of shipping, we need to secure NAMEPA’s future, and to do so we are asking for your support.

In the attached, we outline various opportunities to contribute to this effort. Our goal is to garner enough support to:

· Establish an endowment fund
· Institutionalize our MaritimESG program
· Complete our Planet and Ocean Discovery Series (PODS)
· Accelerate MPSEC (Maritime Primary and Secondary Education Coalition) for which we act as the Secretariat.

The world has changed dramatically in the past 15 years, with the greatest change yet to come. Please join us in securing NAMEPA’s future so we can remain in the forefront of change to Save our Seas!

Thank you in advance for your consideration.
