Make a difference today
1.89 million people work at sea, and with your help we can be there for everyone that needs us.
How will your donation help?
Port Services
Through our global network of port chaplains, we provide practical help, transport, and safe spaces for seafarers far from home. Donations enable ship visits, welfare support, and access to Seafarers’ Centres, ensuring no one faces isolation or crisis alone.
Mental Health Care
We support seafarers facing isolation, stress, and trauma with compassionate listening, crisis response, and wellbeing programmes. Donations help fund trained chaplains and initiatives that tackle anxiety and burnout, bringing hope and human connection to those working under immense pressure at sea.
Family Support Network
Our Family Support Network offers help to seafarers’ families through community programmes, education, and practical assistance. Donations directly provide justice and welfare support to families, helping them stay resilient while loved ones are at sea, and ensuring seafarers can work knowing their families are cared for.
