“The Organization is exempt from payment of taxes on income other than net unrelated business income under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). For the year, there was no unrelated business income and, accordingly, no federal or state income taxes have been recorded. Contributions to the Organization are deductible as provided in IRC Section 170(b)(1)(A)(vi). Management has evaluated the Organizations tax positions and concluded that the Organizations financial statements do not include any uncertain tax positions.”

IRS990/Desc0Many of the seeds sown in 2024 took root in 2025, making FORCE BLUEs ninth year of operation, by far, one of its most successful. Utilizing funds raised through Publix 2024 register campaign, the organization deployed its veterans on seven (7) separate marine conservation missions across the state of Florida, performing everything from living shoreline installations and marine debris removal ops to invasive species eradication and a coral nursery build. With a grant secured through the Seedling Foundation, FORCE BLUE onboarded and trained seven (7) new FORCE BLUE veterans, bringing the organizations total to 60. FORCE BLUE conducted its fifth Ocean Conservation school (OCS) at Loggerhead MarineLife Center and, with a sizeable donation received from FORCE BLUE New York, was able to complete two (2) more Tour of Duty stops, sending teams to Papahanaumokuakea National Marine Sanctuary in Hawaii and Flower Garden Banks in Texas. Building on the success of its documentary film FROG FATHERS: Lessons from the Normandy Surf, FORCE BLUE again partnered with World of Warships in the production of FROG FATHERS 2: Last Battle of the Pacific, which brought a team of FORCE BLUE veterans to the island of Okinawa, where they repaired a section of coral reef blown up by their UDT frog fathers in 1945. FORCE BLUE secured grants (for use in 2026) from Boeing and the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation, expanded its existing partnership with Luminox and added new ones with Vineyard Vines and the National Hockey League.
