Support Public Outreach and Education

Scripps in the Community Did you know that YOU are an important part of Scripps Institution of Oceanography's mission? We've always believed in translating the scientific work done at Scripps to offer tangible benefits to the community, both local and global, and we work hard to uphold that promise through a variety of service-oriented projects and programs.

Birch Aquarium at Scripps is the public exploration center for Scripps, delivering the institution's science to the community for hands-on learning experiences. Other endeavors, such as regular public lectures, are also touching the lives of many people well beyond the Scripps campus borders.

A Helping Hand
Your gift to support Scripps outreach means we can continue to deliver on our promise to bring scientific and environmental education, access, and awareness to the community at large.
