FIU Spring 2025 Sustainability Fair

Overview

On April 8th, 2025, The International SeaKeepers Society participated in a volunteer Sustainability Fair at Florida International University (FIU)’s Biscayne Bay Campus as part of their Earth Month celebration. Our Community Engagement Associate, Lillian, and our Educational Outreach Associate, Jack, arrived and set up a table which included links to various volunteer opportunities with SeaKeepers, giveaways of some promotional materials for various programs under the SeaKeepers banner, as well as a marine science trivia game for students and other staffers of the fair to participate in. Throughout the event, we were joined by a plethora of other sustainability-based organizations and campus life groups who we also shared the mission of SeaKeepers with. By the end of the event, we engaged with more than 150 students and volunteers, many of whom participated in our game and signed up to join the SeaKeepers newsletter. We give a huge thanks to FIU for hosting us and for promoting sustainable initiatives all month long, and we hope to see some of the students and volunteers at future SeaKeepers events!
