Sea of Change Foundation Provides Reef Rescue & Rapid Response Funding Opportunities, 2023

June 27, 2023

In an on-going effort to support marine conservation across scuba diving and coastal communities, the Sea of Change Foundation is again providing funding opportunities for effective and immediate responses to reef damage from anthropogenic impacts such as anchor drops, vessel groundings, oil spills, and other localized and acute impacts to coral reefs. For the sixth year, the Foundation is maintaining a fund dedicated to helping enable communities with a timely response to such incidents –the innovative Reef Rescue & Rapid Response program.

The fund provides one-time, mini grants that range from $500 to a maximum of $5,000 USD as needed. The awarded grants will support divers and their communities in responding quickly to a reef damaging incident by helping to cover immediate costs such as boat fuel, staff time, video cameras, lift bags, transect tapes, and handheld GPS units. A short-form, one-page application is required that describes the date and cause of the incident and the planned response. Anticipated responses may include damage assessment and restoration, or collection of coral fragments for regrowth, and/or up-righting of larger corals that may recover in situ.

Applicants need only send an initial email inquiry to grants(at)seaofchange.com to begin the short, one-page application to acquire the requested funds once approved by the Foundation’s Board of Directors. A brief follow-up report and photo-documentation will also be required.

It is the goal of the Reef Rescue & Rapid Response program to enable and empower the global dive community to act as first-responders to damage on their local reefs. “As divers, our beautiful coral reefs are often what we seek, and they are often why we dive. Therefore, it is our duty to do all that we can to help protect them,” said Samantha Whitcraft, the foundation’s Executive Director and SSI Platinum-Pro 5000 diver. And, she continued, “we hope divers everywhere will make use of and support this new fund.” Importantly, “through the Foundation, 100% of donations go directly to such conservation initiatives around the world to ensure future generations of divers can also experience the ocean and its wonders,” concluded Wayne Brown, CEO of Aggressor Adventures® and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the foundation.

To date, the Reef Resuce and Rapid Response program has funded successful reef rescue projects with local communities in the Bahamas, Malaysia, and the Caribbean.

Sea of Change Foundation Honors Wayne Hasson with Posthumous Lifetime Explorer Award 2021

December 21, 2020 – The Sea of Change Foundation is pleased to announce the 2021 recipient of their prestigious Lifetime Explorer Award is dive industry legend and former foundation Board Member, Wayne Hasson. This annual award honors individuals who exemplify a lifetime of excellence in ocean awareness and exploration. Mr. Hasson is globally recognized as an explorer, environmentalist, educator, and innovator in the dive industry. It is awarded to Mr. Hasson posthumously.

Captain Wayne Hasson was a marine, SCUBA diver extraordinaire and instructor, boat captain, pilot, world traveler and true pioneer in the SCUBA diving industry. Wayne was born in Columbus, Ohio (1950), lived in the Cayman Islands for 20 years, then settled in Naples, Florida in 1999. Wayne fell in love with the sea at an early age while living at the Outer Banks of North Carolina. There he learned boating, diving, fishing, and boat building. Wayne was a proud U.S. Marine serving from 1970 – 1978, including a tour to the Far East supporting operations in Vietnam and served aboard the USS Okinawa assisting in the evacuation of Saigon.

In 1984, Wayne became the first captain of the new Cayman Aggressor (one of the first-ever liveaboard dive yachts) growing it to become the Aggressor Fleet. The fleet later became an internationally recognized brand and leader in exploratory and expeditionary travel, Aggressor Adventures®. Wayne later became partner and President of the new expanded travel company until his passing in 2020.

Wayne’s passion was to inspire youth to explore, understand, and respect the ocean and its wildlife through SCUBA diving, ocean education, and conservation. As an avid pilot, he encouraged countless students of all ages to fly through the Young Eagles program. Wayne was President of the Cayman Islands Watersports Association, Vice President of the Sister Islands Tourism Association, and served on the Boards of the Diving Equipment & Marketing Association (DEMA), the Sea of Change Foundation, Oceans for Youth Foundation, Friends of Rookery Bay, and the Florida Gulf Coast University’s Eagles Club.

The Lifetime Explorer Award was presented by several members of the Foundation’s Board of Directors to his widow, Anne Hasson at the Aggressor Adventures’ headquarters in Augusta, Georgia on December 15. Ms. Hasson who also serves on the Foundation’s Board said, “What an honor and wonderful way to remember Wayne’s legacy. I’m grateful and know that this would make him smile. On his behalf, thank you all very much.”

“Wayne truly embodied the spirit of this award in that his life’s work was based on exploring the world’s oceans for divers and sharing his knowledge of the ocean with adults and children alike. His love of exploration continues to guide us every day,” said Wayne Brown, Chairman of the Board of the foundation and CEO of Aggressor Adventures®.

Earth Day 2021 – Sea of Change Foundation Promotes Sustainable Sun Protection

For Immediate Release. Augusta, Georgia. April 20, 2021:

For Immediate Release. Augusta, Georgia. April 22, 2021: In celebration of Earth Day and in our on-going efforts to protect our waters and our precious coral reefs, the Sea of Change Foundation, in partnership with Aggressor Adventures®, is promoting the use of protective clothing as sun block and offering a discount on our popular sun protection merchandise.

Why are we promoting sun protection clothing on Earth Day? The Foundation’s Sustainable Choices program provides educational materials about choosing environmentally friendly sun protection emphasizing clothing first, followed by reef-friendly, mineral sunscreen lotions. Why? Because physically blocking the sun with a good hat or long-sleeve shirt can be effective in protecting the wearer from sun exposure while limiting the need for commonly used chemical sunscreens, many with ingredients found to impact aquatic life in both fresh-water and saltwater environments. Helping to keep harmful chemicals such as oxybenzone, octinoxate, and octocrylene out of our waters is something we can all do this Earth Day.

Beginning on April 22, Earth Day, and for a week through April 29, using discount code SOCearthday21 when purchasing our men’s or women’s rash guard, broadbrim field hat, or adjustable baseball cap provides a 15% discount. All items feature our chambered nautilus logo, and all funds raised go directly to conservation
research and community action that creates positive change around the world!

“We invite our friends and colleagues from the adventure travel communities to join us in celebrating Earth Day by committing to help protect our planet’s precious water resources,” says Samantha Whitcraft, the Foundation’s Executive Director. “With the generous support of Aggressor Adventures®, our goal is to raise $3,000 to support our Reef Rescue and Rapid Response Fund that empowers local communities to respond to reef-damaging events,” she added. “This Earth Day and every day, with the Sea of Change Foundation, funds from 100% of your purchases and donations go directly to support conservation and research so that future generations can also fall in love with the beauty and wonders of this watery planet called Earth,” says founder Wayne Brown, CEO of Aggressor Adventures® and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Foundation.

You can shop for the Foundation’s exclusive sun protection merchandise at our on-line store or donate directly to the Foundation, here. Thank you and Happy Earth Day!

Sea of Change Foundation Announces Successful Bluefin Tuna Tagging with Tag-A-Giant

For Immediate Release. Augusta, Georgia. March 1, 2021:

Since 2015, the Sea of Change Foundation has supported threatened species conservation projects around the world. In 2020, with the TAG (Tag A Giant) team, the foundation expanded that support to include satellite tagging and tracking of Atlantic bluefin tuna. The Foundation funded three pop-up, satellite archival tags. These technologically advanced devices – using the same microchips and communications technologies found in cell phones – record the fishes’ movements across vast distances.

In December 2020, despite pandemic-caused logistical challenges and bad weather, five fish were tagged, three with satellite tages off the coast of Morehead, North Carolina. The average size of the tagged bluefin tunas was 250 pounds with a 70-inch fork length, making these fish approximately 7 to 9 years old and likely reproductively mature. Before each tagged fish was safely released, DNA fin clips and small tissue samples were taken so that individual genetics and sex markers can later be correlated with their recorded movements. Today, the tags are actively recording valuable data and will continue until they “pop-up” to the ocean surface and upload their data to the nearest satellite for retrieval by the TAG team of scientists to review and analyze.

Why is this important? Eastern Atlantic bluefin tuna are categorized as Endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and Western Atlantic tuna are listed as Critically Endangered. Since 1970, the eastern bluefin population declined by 50% while the western Atlantic bluefin’s spawning biomass suffered a 90% reduction over the same time period. These declines dramatically impact both commercial and recreational fisheries. The data collected from tagged bluefin provides vital information about their population structure, migrations, and spawning sites and times all of which are vital for improving protections and sustainable management of the two stocks.

“At the Sea of Change Foundation, we support cutting-edge science as a powerful tool for effective conservation, and the work of the Tag-A-Giant team is an example of excellent science in action. We’re excited to see the tracks from our three tagged tunas and will share those on our social media, so stay tuned” said Samantha Whitcraft, Executive Director of the Foundation. Importantly, “through the Foundation, 100% of donations go directly to support such research projects that help ensure future generations will also experience the natural world and its wonders, like the magnificent bluefin tuna,” concluded Wayne Brown, CEO of Aggressor Adventures® and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Foundation.

Sea of Change Foundation and FORCE BLUE Join Forces for Safe & Sustainable Sun Protection

In 2018, in order to support both marine conservation and veteran communities, the Sea of Change Foundation initiated and funded a project with FORCE BLUE to utilize its Special Operations Veterans as part of an ocean-awareness, public service campaign.

The campaign supports the ongoing work of FORCE BLUE to create awareness in the community of military families, veterans, and their supporters that marine conservation is something they can engage in. FORCE BLUE works to inspire people already predisposed to service to become “force multipliers” and to take action in the fight to protect our oceans. And the Sea of Change Foundation also addresses issues such as ocean pollution, threatened species and habitats, and coral reef restoration & resilience. Given the overlap in their missions, the Sea of Change Foundation and FORCE BLUE joined forces to engage military communities and the general public to become empowered consumers with regard to environmentally safe sun protection, limiting plastic pollution, and choosing sustainable seafood.

The second of three FORCE BLUE public service announcements (PSAs) is released today focusing on responsible consumer choices regarding single-use plastics. The PSA features Dan Skidmore of Force Blue Team 2, a former USAF Combat Controller. In it he describes how to be an informed consumer about the chemicals found in many common sunscreen products that can be harmful to us and to our fragile coral reefs.

Additionally, at the end of the PSA is a “Join the fight…” button that directs viewers to a survey that will help the Foundation gauge the positive impact of the messaging.

Director of Conservation and Outreach for the Sea of Change Foundation, Samantha Whitcraft said, “Partnering with FORCE BLUE provides the perfect opportunity to empower the broader military community to make sustainable choices for themselves, their families, and our oceans. We’re thrilled to work with them to expand awareness about these important issues.” Wayne Brown, Chairman of the Board of the Sea of Change Foundation adds, “As a veteran, I’m pleased that our Foundation is partnering with FORCE BLUE to help support my fellow veterans in their fight to protect our oceans.”

Sea of Change Foundation and FORCE BLUE Join Forces for the Fight Against Plastic Pollution

The first of three FORCE BLUE public service announcements (PSAs) is released today focusing on responsible consumer choices regarding single-use plastics. The PSA features Jay Casello, of Force Blue Team 2, a former USAF Combat Rescue Officer. In it he describes how we can all make small changes to reduce plastic pollution that is harmful to our oceans.

Sea of Change Foundation Expands Mission

Founded in 2015 by leaders in the scuba diving industry, the Sea of Change Foundation is expanding its core mission while maintaining focus on creating positive change. The Foundation will now fund terrestrial conservation in addition to marine conservation to include all of the natural world. Examples of current and pending projects funded by the Foundation that encompass the new mission include:

Innovations in reducing plastics-use at sea turtle nest monitoring sites, Mexico
Limiting negative interactions between subsistence farmers and elephants, Sri Lanka
Conservation of African manatees in Lake Ossa, Cameroon
Educating military communities and families about daily sustainable choices, USA

The three conservation focus areas of the Foundation will continue as: Ocean Pollution – Public Awareness & Action, Coral Reefs – Restoration & Resilience, and Threatened Species & Habitats, with the latter to now encompass terrestrial conservation. Recognizing the value of scuba divers and coastal communities to local marine conservation, the Foundation will continue its successful Reef Rescue and Rapid Response grants program; and will also continue to support annual marine science scholarships with the Women Divers Hall of Fame.

It is the hope of the Board of Directors of the Sea of Change Foundation that the new expanded mission will help support even more meaningful conservation with positive, measurable outcomes. “Our mission will now better align with the expanding ecotourism of Aggressor Adventures® and, as always, 100% of donations to the Foundation will support conservation,” concluded Wayne Brown, CEO of Aggressor Adventures and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Foundation.
