I am fervently passionate about World Ocean School. This organization impacted my life so profoundly that I have made my career about making transformative opportunities happen for as many people and kids as possible.
14 years ago, I spent my first Christmas holiday in St. Croix aboard Roseway and never could have imagined the life that has since unfolded. As Executive Director for the past 6.5 years, we have navigated hurricanes, the pandemic, and countless other challenges. I am proud that we have continued to innovate and build more impactful programs through all of that. Today, students from Boston, Milwaukee, New York, and St. Croix (all receiving full scholarships to participate) have been wrapping up a voyage together throughout the USVI over the past week— our inaugural Winter Ambassador Program built off our love of our Summer Ambassador Program https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45tsuEpMHKw This experience is so unusual and powerful that it will be with them forever. “If I can do this, I can do anything!”
We could not do this work without the support of incredible donors. A gift of any size makes a big difference. Please consider joining me today with a contribution: www.worldoceanschool.org/become-a-donor This work has changed my life as well as thousands of others; help us continue to make these opportunities possible!
