How it Works

Tidal Impact Fund is a Designated Fund created to power the next generation of ocean-impact startups. We support visionary entrepreneurs tackling the ocean’s most urgent challenges—ensuring breakthrough innovations get the catalytic capital they need to scale.

As a Designated Fund housed within a 501(c)(3) public charity, all donations are tax-deductible. We benefit from built-in legal, administrative, and compliance infrastructure, allowing us to keep operational costs low and channel more capital directly into mission-aligned investments.

Our fund structure is optimized for sustainability: returns from successful investments are recycled into new ocean solutions, amplifying impact and generating a continuous wave of change from a single donation.
