Together for a Healthy Ocean
Earlier this week, the NFCC had the pleasure of joining our member Dopper at the One Ocean Gala, hosted by the Surfrider Foundation Europe. This inspiring evening brought together businesses, environmental organizations, policymakers, and changemakers united by a shared purpose — protecting our oceans for future generations.
The gala successfully raised €175,500 to support Surfrider’s ongoing efforts in Europe. These funds will help advance critical projects such as monitoring water quality, educating youth about marine conservation, and advocating for policies that reduce plastic pollution and protect our coastlines.
For us, attending this event was a reminder of the important role that responsible business leadership plays in environmental stewardship.
Our members, like Dopper, demonstrate that sustainable innovation and economic activity can go hand in hand. By challenging single-use culture and promoting circular solutions, they set an example of how companies can contribute meaningfully to global challenges.
We thank Dopper for inviting us to take part in this impactful event and for their ongoing commitment to sustainability. It’s through partnerships like these — between businesses, communities, and environmental advocates — that we can drive lasting change.
Together, we can ensure that the ocean remains not only a vital resource, but a thriving, living system that supports us all.
