Gowings Whale Trust was established in 2016 by business leader, John Gowing. As a surfer and fisherman, John feels deeply connected to the ocean. He believes that businesses profiting from material production have an ethical responsibility to ensure that their business practices are sustainable. As Director of Gowings Whale Trust, John aims to forge strong partnerships with environmental agencies, using the profit from Gowings companies to fund effective projects. We established the Gowings Whale Trust to increase people’s knowledge, involvement and understanding of the humpback whale through public education. Established to protect and preserve our oceans and marine life, our strong connections with the corporate and public arenas ensures that the Whale Trust flourishes. By using Gowings business channels the Gowings Whale Trust is able to initiate campaigns that support like-minded research, ocean clean-up and direct-action organisations. Gowings Whale Trust is funded through partnerships with FCS surf hardware and Keyport. We use our funds to partner with organisations such as the Sea Shepherd, Plastic Collective, Ocean Warrior and MiiMi Aboriginal Corporation.
