Mission Statement

Touch Tanks for Kids enables our most precious resource, our children, to study, respect and gain appreciation for the world's oceans, through a unique hands-on educational program. Life lessons taught in the classroom, empower the children to realize that individuals acting collectively can positively change our world. 

Established in 2005, Touch Tanks for Kids is a charitable organization that challenges each of us to live to our fullest potential as good stewards of our natural resources while
building a strong economy with informed environmental policies and innovative solutions.
