Financial Statements
As outlined in our Annual Reports Ocean Wise in in a period of transition. In May 2021, Ocean Wise began a new chapter after the sale of the Vancouver Aquarium to a third party. This marked a significant shift in our mission and operations, as we refocused entirely on ocean conservation initiatives both in Canada and globally.
Over the past three years, we’ve been rebuilding our back-office infrastructure—including finance, HR, technology, and fundraising operations—to support our expanded mission and ensure long-term sustainability. These strategic investments have been made using reserves from the aquarium sale, not from donor contributions.
The goal of these investments is to build a strong foundation for self-sustaining operations within 5 to 6 years, ensuring that we can deliver high-impact conservation work for the long term. In the interest of transparency and integrity we are sharing audited financial statements in full.
