Monterey Bay Aquarium

Founded more than 30 years ago, the Monterey Bay Aquarium remains a “showcase for the habitats and sea life of one of the world’s richest marine regions.” It is home to more than 35,000 creatures representing over 550 species, and fills 34 major galleries with nearly 200 exhibits. Annual attendance typically exceeds over 2 million guests. This grant for general operating support in honor of Hewlett Foundation Board Chair Steve Neal will help to support the aquarium’s ongoing work.
