The Oyster Recovery Partnership is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization commissioned as a cooperative coalition of multiple local, state and federal agency partners that contribute toward a large-scale restoration program that plants disease-free oysters back into the Chesapeake Bay. We receive our operating funds through grants and donations from federal, state and local governments, corporations, foundations and private citizens. We believe in maximizing our monetary resources as 95 percent of our funds are used directly for restoration programs.
