All For Blue is a Greek environmental organization protecting the marine ecosystem via training seminars and experiential cleaning activities.
It was founded in 2017 by Katerina Topouzoglou with a clear life’s mission. To protect the seas and oceans and raise ecological awareness.
Through education and experiential cleanup actions, All For Blue managed to work with both public and private sectors raising awareness for the protection of the marine ecosystem but also to mobilize many people by enhancing their sense of ecological consiousness.
“I’ve always felt lucky I was born in Greece and able to enjoy the sea at every opportunity. I feel at home at sea; I love its wildness, its unpredictability, and its incredible beauty.
Katerina Topouzoglou, Founder of All For Blue
