The National Coalition for Marine Conservation (NCMC) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization under the federal tax code. We receive funding from both our members and charitable foundations. Our members include conservation-minded fishermen, scientists, divers, boaters, fishing clubs and associations, students, and wildlife enthusiasts. In addition, all proceeds from sales of books and merchandise go to support our conservation programs.
