Join the FAU Harbor Branch Benefactors Society!
Florida Atlantic University’s Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute is a world leader in marine science and ocean exploration. For more than 50 years, our renowned experts have conducted solution-oriented research, with the purpose of improving the health and wellbeing of our coastal and ocean ecosystems, and serving our communities in South Florida and beyond. FAU Harbor Branch is also internationally recognized for its educational excellence and vital outreach programs. We are proud to be a resource for such a highly connected and ocean-attuned community.
In 2021, we launched the FAU Harbor Branch Benefactors Society as a dedicated platform for the community to dive deeper into our programs and mission, engage in group activities, and discover our researchers’ work from a unique vantage point. To date, more than 160 generous ocean-lovers have joined our program to help preserve and protect our blue planet for generations to come. We are grateful to our members, whose annual membership fees support our most critical needs and accelerate our ability to respond to opportunities that impact positive change. Your sustained commitment ultimately supports groundbreaking research and outstanding educational and community programs that inspire the next generation of ocean stewards.
