EAST, the Environmental Association of St. Thomas and St. John, is a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting the natural and cultural heritage of the Virgin Islands.

Despite facing financial challenges, EAST has thrived through the efforts of its passionate volunteer board members. They have developed partnerships with various businesses and community organizations to offer engaging and educational activities for the youth, such as Eco-Camps and Whale Watches. However, to sustain its mission and meet the growing demand for environmental awareness and advocacy, EAST urgently needs funding to hire a full-time Executive Director and establish a dedicated office space.

The organization remains committed to its cause, but it requires more support to continue making a positive impact in the Virgin Islands. You can contribute to EAST by donating your time, money, or resources.
