In June, Oceana and La Mer celebrated World Ocean Day in New York City. The luxury skincare company presented Oceana with a $100,000 donation to aid the organization's continuing battle to save the oceans.
La Mer President Maureen Case recognized the impact of Oceana's work to improve the health of the oceans."This is only the beginning of a partnership that will last a long, long time," she said.
In addition to its donation, La Mer presented a limited edition World Ocean Day crème, available in 173 locations in North America and select La Mer counters around the world. Many La Mer counters in department stores featured the partnership on colorful displays.
Since 2005, La Mer has worked with Oceana to promote ocean protection and restoration. La Mer has supported Oceana's Partners Award Gala, which honors outstanding work in the field of marine conservation.

"There on the beach was a sign that said ‘ocean polluted, no swimming.' My daughters were 4 and 8 and they said ‘why can't we go swimming?' I didn't know the answer, so I became involved. This is an effective organization, check it out, go to oceana.org and check it out for yourself." -- Ted Danson, actor and activist
