At the Walton Family Foundation, we know that conservation solutions that make economic sense are the ones that stand the test of time. We work to achieve lasting change by creating new and unexpected partnerships among conservation, business and community interests to build durable solutions to big problems. We invest in organizations and programs that pursue lasting conservation solutions for oceans and rivers while also recognizing the role these waters play in the livelihoods of those who live and work nearby. The Walton Family Foundation invested $91m in environmental conservation projects in 2012

Seacology are a nonprofit whose mission is to work with islanders around the world to protect threatened ecosystems and help their local communities.
