Make Your CSR Count for the Ocean
Marine Conservation Philippines partners with businesses that share a commitment to coastal ecosystems. From a direct donation to a co-branded campaign your team can get behind, we will find a path that works for you.
Meaningful conservation, measurable results
Marine Conservation Philippines has worked to protect the coral reefs, mangroves and coastal communities of southern Negros Oriental since 2015. We are a registered non-profit, externally audited, and transparently funded.
Your CSR investment goes directly into reef monitoring, mangrove restoration, environmental education for local children and coastal plastic removal. We report back with real data, photos and field updates, so you can show your stakeholders exactly what their support accomplished.
We accept all forms of support with thanks: direct financial donations, thematic campaign partnerships, in-kind contributions and staff volunteering programmes.

Four partners, four very different ideas
Since 2017, our CSR partners have included a Swiss watchmaker, a nationwide coffee chain, a German museum and a group of digital artists. Each turned what they do best into support for the ocean, and no two did it the same way.
Limited-edition product
Aquinus
Part of Swiss watchmaker Montrichard, Aquinus designed an exclusive limited-edition dive watch to support our work in the Philippines, turning a product made for divers into direct support for the reefs they explore.

Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf
Through its #CaringCup programme, CB&TL ran an online ocean-art postcard competition. The winning designs became a postcard set sold in its stores across the country, with proceeds donated to MCP, so customers helped create the very thing they bought.

Aquazoo Löbbecke Museum
The museum's special exhibition “Black Ocean” displayed cephalopod photography by Japanese photographer Jinggong Zhang. The photographs were then auctioned off, with the proceeds donated to MCP.
Digital art
Adalantic
These digital philanthropists create marine-themed NFT art on the Cardano blockchain, chosen because it needs no mining and uses far less energy. In their Dolphin Series for MCP, each piece's rarity was set by real-world dolphin population sizes, so the scarcest species made the rarest art.
Your idea doesn't need to look like any of these. Tell us what you have in mind, and we'll help shape it.

Adalantic
Adalantic is a group of digital philanthropists who support marine conservation efforts by creating and selling marine themed NFT art. The NFTs are minted on the Cardano Blockchain, which doesn't require mining and therefore consumes significantly less energy compared to other blockchains. Their Dolphin Series in support of Marine Conservation Philippines created pieces of art using a random algorithm pulling rarities based on real world dolphin population sizes.
