Veteran Sponsorship

Each year Saving the Blue sponsors a number of positions to join research expeditions. We welcome minority groups, youth, service members, and veterans and their families. We hope this program will provide opportunities to those that may never afford an adventure similar to this, or perhaps are unaware a research trip like this exists.

We selected and welcomed veteran Brianna to join our team in The Bahamas! Brianna’s application was overflowing with love, passion and kindness. She has adored sharks since a child and this trip was her first opportunity to spend time with them in and on the water! During our weeks expedition Brianna quickly became part of the team and developed a variety of skills, while also diving and sharing space with wild sharks; a dream she always wanted to make a reality.

We would like to highlight that Brianna had previously applied for a sponsorship role with us and was unsuccessful (by a whisker) on that occasion. Please never give up chasing your dreams, and please be inspired to always apply. Thank you always to those who have served and sacrificed. Never ever forgotten.
