‘100 for the Ocean’ Brings Together 100 Photographers from Around the World to Support Marine Conservation
In 2023, the inaugural 100 for the Ocean event raised more than half a million dollars toward ocean conservation, and this year it’s back with 100 world-renowned photographers and artists making a global difference. From June 1 to 30, you can purchase prints for $100, with 100% of the net proceeds supporting three under-funded and under-recognized nonprofit organizations focused on ocean advocacy and action.
This year, recipients of funding include Coral Gardeners, focused on coral restoration; New Zealand-based Young Ocean Explorers, inspiring school-age children to protect and cherish the world’s marine environments; and Oceans Initiative, which communicates data and urgency around threats to British Columbia’s Salish Sea.
Founded by Paul Nicklen, Cristina Mittermeier, and Chase Teron, 100 for the Ocean dovetails with the work of SeaLegacy, an organization illuminating stories about the earth’s vast watery expanses through photography and filmmaking. SeaLegacy partners with countless scientists, artists, and nonprofits around the world to make tangible, lasting progress toward protecting the planet’s delicate ecosystems.
The diverse collection of images for 2024 includes playful polar bears captured by Daisy Gilardini in Manitoba; a curious humpback whale dancing in circles around Kori Burkhardt in French Polynesia; and reef sharks glowing in the sun against a backdrop of a double rainbow, photographed by Emmett Sparling.
“What is so great about 100 for the Ocean is that it is accessible to many people who want to help protect our planet but aren’t sure where to start,” says Cristina Mittermeier. “Our goal isn’t just to raise funds for ocean initiatives; it’s to start the conversation between those behind the lens and those at home. We want to share the stories of our planet with you, create that connection, and make a lasting impact for the collective good of our planet.”
The print shop opens at 12 a.m. EST on June 1, and true to the theme, only 100 editions of each photograph are available.
