On a Heartpath

WE DON’T JUST WANT TO EXPLORE THE BEAUTIFUL PLACES IN THE WORLD, WE WANT TO BE A PART OF THEIR PROTECTION AND CONSERVATION.

Over the last thirty years, we’ve endlessly explored, paddled and trekked the water trails that weave through the Lowcounty of South Carolina. The pressures on our natural resources are greater than ever, and we know from our work that the best way to get people to act is to give them a meaningful experience in that environment. The foundation is a natural extension of Coastal Expeditions, Inc., allowing our passion for things like loggerhead conservation and environmental education to expand.

The mission of the Coastal Expeditions Foundation is to ensure that experiences with wildlife and the habitats we all share are accessible for all, and to provide opportunities for us to channel our collective passion for the environment into preserving and visiting these ecosystems for generations to come.

We do this through our three program pillars: education, community service, and habitat and wildlife conservation.
