HOW IT ALL BEGAN
Children for the oceans was founded in 2018, just after its co-founder Thomas Lesage completed a worldwide sailing tour to promote the protection of the ocean among the youth.
Thomas boarded the Gulden Leuw, a dutch sailing boat, and sailed the Atlantic for more than four months. This project enabled Thomas to understand and witness the different threats that the ocean face.
Thomas delivered awareness sessions around the world, sharing his experience with the children while promoting the crucial role the ocean plays in our daily lives.
