Dauphin Island Sea Lab Foundation Mission

The Dauphin Island Sea Lab Foundation (DISLF) supports the Sea Lab in its mission to provide wise stewardship of the marine environment through education and research. The Foundation provides funds to sustain the activities and promote awareness of the Sea Lab and its environmental issues and also funds the George Crozier Endowment.

The Sea Lab is the marine laboratory for the State of Alabama. It serves twenty-two institutions of higher learning as well as hosting programs from k5-12th grade and Alabama Science teachers. The educational component is an important facet but the excellent, nationally acclaimed research aspect has been highlighted in the wake of the Deep Water Horizon oil spill disaster.
