Donate Funds
Every dollar makes a difference. At SeaShare, just $1 helps provide 6 servings of nutritious seafood to individuals and families facing food insecurity. Seafood is one of the least available proteins at food banks, yet it provides essential nutrients that support healthy communities.
Your Impact
- $10 = 60 servings
- $25 = 150 servings
- $50 = 300 servings
- $100 = 600 servings
- $250 = 1,500 servings
- $500 = 3,000 servings
More than 47 million Americans face food insecurity, including nearly 14 million children. Your support helps ensure food banks and feeding centers can provide high-quality, nutrient-dense seafood to the people who need it most.

Fundraising Campaigns & Special Events
Running a marathon, hosting an event, celebrating a birthday, or organizing a workplace fundraiser? SeaShare can create a dedicated fundraising campaign page to help track donations and showcase the impact of your efforts. Employer matching gifts can also be incorporated into campaign fundraising.
Seafood Business, Market & Restaurant Giving
Other than donating seafood directly, seafood businesses, seafood markets, and restaurants can play a large role in helping make nutritious seafood more accessible in their communities.
Round-Up & Customer Giving Programs
Invite customers to support SeaShare by rounding up their purchase or adding $1 at checkout. It’s a simple action with real impact.
This program allows customers to directly support hunger relief while purchasing seafood for their own families — creating a meaningful connection between your business and your community.
For restaurants, donations can be added directly to the check, included as a menu prompt, or offered by servers as an optional contribution. Seafood markets and retailers can integrate donation prompts into checkout systems or point-of-sale platforms.
These programs provide an easy and impactful way to connect your customers and guests to a cause that aligns with the food they are enjoying and purchasing.
SeaShare can also help promote participating partners and recognize the impact of your community fundraising efforts. Reach out and let us help set it up for you!
Honor & Memorial Giving
Support SeaShare in honor of a loved one, special occasion, or in memoriam. We are happy to help set up tribute giving opportunities.
