ALEXANDRIA, Va., Jan. 5, 2022 – Sea Shepherd's fight to protect marine wildlife and preserve threatened species has received a significant boost. Age of Union Alliance, led by tech leader and environmental activist Dax Dasilva, has pledged $4.5 million USD to support Sea Shepherd's efforts to battle illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing worldwide.
This transformational donation will fund three years of operating costs for one of Sea Shepherd's most iconic vessels – the 182-foot research and survey vessel formerly named Sam Simon. In recognition of this generous gift, the ship will embark on its next mission later this month under a new name: Age of Union.
Please welcome Age of Union to the fleet!
