Support Sanctuary Status for Cashes Ledge

Kelp forest in Cashes Ledge

Cashes Ledge, an extraordinary undersea mountain range in the Gulf of Maine, is home to a thriving diversity of habitats and marine life. Future generations deserve to have this unique treasure and all the vulnerable marine life that it supports protected forever. 

That's why we nominated Cashes Ledge to become a national marine sanctuary. Sanctuary status will protect Cashes Ledge from damaging human activities and build resilience to climate change in the Gulf of Maine’s warming waters.   

For our nomination to be successful, we need to prove that New Englanders like you support keeping Cashes Ledge a wildlife haven in the Gulf of Maine. Please add your signature to show your support and help preserve this biodiversity hotspot off our shores.
