About this organization
Mission
As the region's leading voice for clean water and continued public investment in Boston Harbor, the region's public beaches, and the Boston Harbor Islands, our mission is to restore and protect Boston Harbor, Massachusetts Bay and the marine environment and share them with the public for everyone to enjoy. Since 1986, Save the Harbor/Save the Bay has led the effort to restore and protect Boston Harbor, Massachusetts Bay, the waterfront, our region's public beaches and the Boston Harbor Islands and reconnect and share these extraordinary urban environmental assets with all Bostonians and the region's residents, especially underserved youth, teens and their families.
About
Youth Environmental Education Programs: Save the Harbor/Save the Bay runs the region's largest free, harbor-focused youth environmental education programs, connecting nearly 230,000 underserved youth, teens and families to Boston Harbor and the Boston Harbor Islands since we began them in 2002. Our free programs include 22 all access Boston Harbor Islands excursions to Spectacle and Georges Islands in the Boston Harbor Islands National Park. In the spring, summer and fall we ran 11 new free Share the Harbor cruises including marine mammal safaris, Boston light tours and treasures of Spectacle Island excursions for the region's families. We also run our Boston Harbor Explorers program at 15 program sites on Boston Harbor and at 20 free events on the region's public beaches. In 2018 these free programs served more than 30,000 young people and their families from 124 youth development and community organizations in 143 communities.
