2020

WDHOF 20 for 2020 Basic Dive Training Grant, sponsored by Frank Boulanger and WDHOF Member Erin O'Neill, in memory of WDHOF Member Ella Jean Morgan

Saida Marik

Saida lives in Zanzibar where diving is dominated by men and is not common work among women. She wants to learn how to dive, get a job in a diving-related field, and encourage other women to do the same. To prepare for this goal, Saida earned her certificate as tour guide from Kawa Training Center in 2018. She has taken a course specializing in marine biology and, with this grant, she will be able to move closer to her career goal to become a marine biologist.
