Friends of Birch Aquarium
Friends of Birch Aquarium is a giving society grown from the legacy of Ellen Browning Scripps and Ellen’s Circle. Continuing in these footsteps, Friends of Birch Aquarium furthers youth access and education through support of the Aquarium’s mission to provide ocean science education, to interpret Scripps Oceanography research, and to promote ocean conservation.
Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego is one of the world's oldest, largest and most important centers for ocean, earth and atmospheric science research, education and public service.
Since its beginnings, the institution has featured a public aquarium and outreach center - now the Birch Aquarium - to serve as a public exploration center, interpreting Scripps research and communicating scientific understanding of the oceans, atmosphere and Earth for the benefit of society and the planet.
