With minimal overhead and significant pro bono support, the Wide Net Project is a strong steward of donations. Your donations directly further our conservation education and scientific work, as well as our commitment to better engaging the public about hunger and restoring the Chesapeake Bay.
We are a Maryland non-profit corporation, and currently our federal 501c3 application is in process; accordingly, any donations will be retroactively tax deductible upon approval. For larger gifts, we also partner with a longer-established 501c3 organization as a fiscal sponsor. Please donate directly here via Paypal or be in touch with any questions about donations of any size.
