The H2O Friends program offers free access to the St. Louis Aquarium and STEM based conservation and aquatic life education for youth from Title 1 schools and other underserved community partners.
In 2024, the Foundation and hundreds of volunteers cleaned up 200 bags of garbage, diverting 3,600 lbs of trash from entering the Mississippi River. Learn about this opportunity and others to make a positive impact on water stewardship.
We welcome more than 20,000 students each year, teaching about aquatic animals and water stewardship through classes, scout programs, field trips, outreach and more.
