Refer your customers. Stay 100% AWARE for free.
Refer 10 customers a year who become monthly donors and we will not expect a donation from you. Entirely optional. If you would rather keep giving and not refer, that works too.
Bronze
Ten monthly donors referred in a year. We will not expect a donation from you, and you stay 100% AWARE.
Silver
Twenty referred, and a Silver thank you certificate sent to your centre each year.
Gold
Thirty referred, and a Gold thank you certificate. The top tier of the program.
Your QR code
Your pack includes posters with a referral QR code. The landing page has a referral box, so your customer can credit your centre.

A cleanup is finite. The infrastructure is not.
Your partnership funds the work your customers see the need for on every dive. One centre acts locally. Every centre together builds the evidence. Here is where it lands.
Citizen science that holds up
Every survey your centre runs feeds the world's largest underwater citizen science database, and that data reaches IUCN, CITES and the UN Global Plastics Treaty negotiations.
Grants where the reef is
In Kenya, a Community Grant trained ten community members as Reef Rangers. Eight are now employed, and the work established the first Community-Managed Area in the Diani-Chale Reserve. A second grant is running now in the 47-hectare Mkwiro Community Managed Area
Your dive sites, monitored
Adopt the Blue turns registered dive sites into monitored places, with survey data coming back from the reefs your team dives every week.

Your customers already care. Give them somewhere to put it.
Every 100% AWARE Partner started with one centre deciding the ocean was part of how they operate.
