5 reasons you should consider giving to charity
Donating to charity has lots of benefits for you and us. Here are five reasons you should give to charity.
1. You can make the world a better place
Charities have different goals to help the planet, and work in various ways to achieve them.
We work to address the climate crisis, protect marine wildlife and clean up our ocean. We drive political and social change through people-powered action. We unite communities, businesses, and governments to champion science-based solutions for cleaner, healthier seas for people and planet. People like you make this work possible.
2. You can be a part of something bigger
You’re not alone in your desire to make a positive impact. Donating to charity shows dedication to important causes that you can share with others.
Becoming involved with a charity means joining a community of like-minded people with a shared goal or passion. Between you all, your ocean donations add up to create significant impact.
3. You can take pride in your beliefs
Supporting charities is a great way to show your pride as they share the same values as you. They also have the power to make the positive change that you believe in.
As well as getting involved in events and activities, charitable donations or memberships are a simple, effective way to do something that makes an impact and brings about the change you want to see.
4. You can help spread the word
Giving can fund large-scale projects which could generate interest through media coverage or other promotion, like social media or digital advertisements. This means your donation has the potential to increase the impact of what a charity can do, as well as how many people it reaches. Choosing to purchase and wear clothing bought from their shop is also a quick and easy way to help spread the word.
5. Giving to charity makes you feel good
Helping an important cause can improve your mood while having a positive impact on the environment.
Donating can also benefit personal wellbeing too. Through our dedicated work to reduce ocean pollution we’ve helped lower plastic waste, campaigned for regulations on ocean chemicals and taken legal action against the UK Government to make sewage-free seas a reality. All of which has helped make our blue spaces more welcoming and mood-boosting locations. Check out our eco-anxiety resources to further boost your mood using the ocean as inspiration.
