When you give to the Aquarium, you play a crucial role in our future. As a private non-profit organization, the Oregon Coast Aquarium relies on tax-deductible contributions and membership dues to support exceptional animal care, wildlife rehabilitation, coastal conservation efforts, education, outreach and so much more.
See below for ways you can help support the Aquarium; from donations, to volunteering, to gift options for loved ones.
Donors help support our facilities, provide exceptional animal care, maintain our state-of-the art exhibits, and offer vital education and conservation programs.
Aquarium members enjoy unlimited admission for a year, plus many other benefits, while playing a role in supporting our mission.
The Aquarium is home to more than 15,000 invertebrates, fishes, birds and marine mammals. Help provide the best care possible by symbolically adopting an animal for one year.
Featuring stunning photos of iconic Aquarium animals, our 2025 calendars are a great way to bring in the New Year. These limited edition calendars are available while supplies last; order today.
We invite you to support the Aquarium with a personalized inscribed brick in our front entry pathway. This unique gift will leave a lasting impression that can be revisited again and again.
Aquarium volunteers channel their enthusiasm for marine science by sharing knowledge of animals and habitats with our guests and by assisting staff with food preparation, observation, record keeping and exhibit upkeep.
In the ocean, sea stars are known for their amazing ability to create new cells, sparking new growth. Like the Sea Star, a legacy gift will ensure the Oregon Coast Aquarium’s sustainable growth for future regenerations.
Companies large and small support charities that are important to their employees (and retired employees) by matching contributions and volunteer hours. Ask your employer if they have a Matching Gift Program. Click below for a partial list of businesses that match charitable donations.
Looking for a support option that doubles as a gift? Memberships, animal adoptions, and other options directly support the Oregon Coast Aquarium’s exceptional animal care and wildlife rehabilitation efforts.
No matter how you choose to support the Aquarium, you play a crucial role in supporting exceptional animal care, wildlife rehabilitation, coastal conservation efforts, education, outreach and so much more.
