Our Commitment to Transparency
At MMF, we believe transparency is fundamental to achieving our mission of protecting threatened marine giants. Earning GuideStar’s prestigious Platinum Level is a testament to our commitment to operating with the highest standards of accountability and openness.
What does GuideStar Platinum mean?
