Mission: Save The Bay works to protect and restore Narragansett Bay and its watershed. We have 20,000 members and supporters and over 900 volunteers who make our work possible.   Save The Bay watchdogs government agencies, responds to pollution incidents, raises public awareness, offers extensive volunteer and internship opportunities, and provides educational programs to the region’s schoolchildren and the general public.   Save The Bay offers exciting programs to give the public direct experience with the Bay because we know that when people understand the Bay, they care about the Bay.   We host cruises, seal watching trips, kayaking events, an annual swim across the Bay, and much more.
