Clean Oceans International (COI) is a California-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit working to reduce ocean plastic pollution through science, community engagement, and practical solutions. Our work focuses on two complementary approaches: Community Science & Data (EPAP) Through our Environmental Plastic Assessment Program (EPAP), we train volunteers, students, and partner organizations to measure plastic pollution on coastlines using standardized survey methods. This work generates consistent, comparable data that helps communities understand pollution trends, evaluate cleanup efforts, and advocate for informed solutions. Developing Practical Waste Solutions (PPWC) COI is actively developing small-scale plastic waste conversion systems designed for communities with limited waste infrastructure. This work is currently in the research and development phase, with the goal of creating a safe, adaptable, and deployable system. We are collaborating with partners in places such as Ulithi Atoll and Baghdad, where local teams are currently conducting plastic assessments and cleanups to better understand their waste streams and inform future system design and potential deployment. From Data to Action COI connects field data with on-the-ground action—supporting coastal cleanups, long-term beach adoption efforts, and partnerships that turn information into impact. By combining measurement, education, and implementation, we help communities move from awareness to informed decision-making.

A free and democratic press willing to explore the role of religion as an essential part of public life is one of the founding principles of The Media Project. The mission of 501c(3) organization includes helping journalists develop the skills needed to engage in an intellectually honest and critical approach to subjects related to religion, ethics and values to enrich and deepen coverage of religion -- regardless of the reporter's personal faith.

The programs are open to journalists of all faith traditions.

To reduce the burden of human cancer, research conducted at the Institute for Cancer Research of Fox Chase Cancer Center for over eight decades has led to ground-breaking discoveries affecting science and medicine today. Current research programs are wide-ranging and include gene expression; molecular aspects of oncogenesis; viral molecular biology and pathogenesis; molecular structure and function analysis; pharmacology and therapeutics; regulation and development of the immune system; cell-cycle control; and human genetics. Opportunities are available for postdoctoral fellowships and graduate training and for professionals interested in developing technology-based business relationships or partnerships with Fox Chase.
