About
Coming back from Raja Ampat after an impressive journey, Theo V. began reflecting on his contribution to marine conservation programs.
After a few weeks of work, the platform is now live. In collaboration with Local Charities Worldwide, we launched a platform for local marine conservation programs that urgently need support.
"Local Charities are important. Those who give should be able to trust that their gift will help someone who truly needs it, and soon. That is why we exist. We want to facilitate direct giving to the small Charities on the ground, because they really are changing the world, every day, for so many people. "
