Building Spaces for a Brighter Future
The Dauphin Island Sea Lab Foundation Capital Campaign
The Dauphin Island Sea Lab provides spaces necessary to meet today's demand for wide range of teaching environments. To meet this demand, an outdoor classroom is critical to achieve the educational mission of the Sea Lab.
An outdoor classroom and a larger, deeper pool complex at the Dauphin Island Sea Lab will enable both the Discovery Hall and University Programs ability to provide modern, experiential marine skill training for students of all ages.

Saving America's Amazon
A longtime environmental reporter, Ben Raines has won more than two dozen awards for his coverage of environmental issues and natural wonders in Alabama and on the Gulf Coast and coauthored several peer-reviewed papers published in scientific journals. Raines—filmmaker, aquatic explorer, and discoverer of the wreck of the Clotilda, the last ship to bring enslaved Africans to the U.S.—wrote and produced the documentary America’s Amazon, which has aired on PBS stations around the country. He wrote and directed The Underwater Forest, an award-winning film about the exploration of a seventy thousand-year-old cypress forest found off the Alabama coast. Ben Raines is a licensed charter captain who leads adventure tours in the Mobile-Tensaw Delta and to Alabama’s barrier islands.
Saving America’s Amazon will be available in December 2020 through your favorite local or online retailer.

"The course style influenced me in the college that I eventually attended. I am very thankful for the Marine Science Course and the Sea Lab. It was my first step into a field of study which I still find very interesting."

Why Donate
A young child's trip to the Estuarium, the DISL's Aquarium, sparks the imagination. Time spent with our Discovery Hall Program's educators grows the desire to study marine science leading many to pursue college degrees. University Programs create focus on research.
Every reason for supporting and donating is different, but every donation matters. Your donation enhances the Dauphin Island Sea Lab's educational, research and service programs.
Campus Naming Campaign
The DISL Foundation is supporting the DISL campus through a program of naming opportunities. The entire campus is up for grabs! Opportunities start as little as $1000 and span up to $100,000. Almost any size gift within this range has a room just waiting for you to claim it.
