Support the NOSB
The NOSB is made possible due to the dedication of our federal, foundation, corporate, and individual supporters.
You can inspire the next generation of ocean leaders!
Your donation to support the National Ocean Sciences Bowl (NOSB) is inspiring the next generation of ocean leaders. The NOSB is an academic competition and program that addresses a national gap in environmental and earth sciences in public education by introducing high school students to and engaging them in ocean science, preparing them for ocean science-related and other science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careers, and helping them become knowledgeable members of their community and environmental stewards.
