Every day, Salem Sound Coastwatch brings together science, education, and community action to keep our beaches cleaner, restore coastal habitats, prepare our communities for climate change, and inspire the next generation of environmental stewards.

Event Sponsorship

Every summer, our Run for the Beach 5K attracts hundreds of runners, walkers, and families to the North Shore. Community members come to cheer on racers, bring their children for a day of fun, and volunteer to make the event a huge success! As a sponsor of our signature event, you can show the community your commitment to a healthy environment. 

Together, we’re creating a Salem Sound where clean water, thriving wildlife, resilient communities, and meaningful environmental education are part of everyday life.

Thank you for protecting this extraordinary place with us.
