GET INVOLVED
There are countless ways to help support MERR Institute and the various projects in which we are engaged. Most importantly, you can become A MEMBER, which helps support what we do year-round.
Additionally, you can become a VOLUNTEER, which is essential to our many EDUCATIONAL and OUTREACH programs, rescue and response, and collecting valuable data to share with colleagues.
College-age students are urged to apply for an INTERNSHIP with MERR, which provides a hands-on approach to rescue, response, and research.
Even if you don't live in a coastal area, there are other ways you can help protect the ocean inhabitants by EDUCATING yourself about small changes that can be made on a daily basis to make our world more ocean-friendly.
