How Ocean Blue Project’s Collaboration with Patagonia Action Works Began
The partnership between Ocean Blue Project and Patagonia Action Works traces back to its roots in 2017 through the World Trout Initiative, a grant program by Patagonia designed to protect and restore habitats for native trout populations. Through this initiative, Ocean Blue received foundational funding to begin its cleanup work and scalable efforts toward ocean preservation.
As the two organizations’ missions aligned, our relationship grew stronger through Patagonia Action Works’ continued support of Ocean Blue Project initiatives. By bridging financial resources with grassroots environmental advocacy, Patagonia Action Works has provided Ocean Blue with crucial tools and opportunities to advance impact-driven efforts.
