Every sunset on the central Mediterranean sea marks the end of a long day—and the start of a critical night.

​For people stranded at sea, dusk brings dropping temperatures and low visibility. For our crew on the SEA-EYE 5, it means steering into darkness and keeping watch around the clock.

That’s why I’m launching #SafeSunset, a collective campaign powered entirely by you.

​Every single euro donated brings us closer to keeping @seaeye_org life-saving operations running. Each time our community reaches a €50 milestone, it will unlock an exclusive piece of life at sea—unfiltered sunset photographs, behind-the-scenes crew vlogs, and real in ops footage, straight from the central Med.

​It doesn't matter if you chip in €5 or €50—every contribution directly fuels our search-and-rescue mission.

You can donate directly, quickly and securely here. Every donation counts – no matter how small! Let’s stand up for humanity together this summer.

Many thanks and best wishes!

Chaque coucher de soleil en Méditerranée centrale marque la fin d'une longue journée—et le début d'une nuit critique.

Pour les personnes bloquées en mer, le crépuscule apporte des températures en baisse et une faible visibilité. Pour notre équipage à bord du SEA-EYE 5, cela signifie naviguer dans l'obscurité et maintenir une veille constante, 24h/24.

C'est pourquoi je lance #SafeSunset, une campagne collective entièrement portée par vous.

Chaque euro donné nous rapproche du maintien des opérations de sauvetage de @seaeye_org. À chaque fois que notre communauté atteint un palier de 50 €, cela débloque un aperçu exclusif de la vie en mer—des photos de couchers de soleil sans filtre, des vlogs des coulisses de l'équipage et de véritables images d'intervention, en direct de la Méditerranée centrale.

Peu importe que vous donniez 5 € ou 50 €—chaque contribution alimente directement notre mission de recherche et de sauvetage.

Vous pouvez faire un don directement, rapidement et en toute sécurité ici. Chaque don compte – peu importe son montant ! Ensemble, défendons l'humanité cet été.

Un grand merci et mes meilleures salutations !

Frequently asked questions

Your donation saves lives. It goes directly to Sea-Eye e.V., an organisation for civil sea rescue. Sea rescue is still carried by civil society. Sea-Eye goes where Europe looks away and closes itself off. Every euro helps us run missions, protect lives and make the humanitarian crisis in the Mediterranean visible.

No. Listing your campaign and using the provided texts, image material and other resources is free of charge. Costs may arise from your own activity itself. We cannot reimburse or pre-finance the organisation or implementation of your fundraising campaign. Small donations are also very welcome. If you first cover your own expenses, such as a flea-market stall fee, and then donate the remaining proceeds or part of them, that is great too. To generate more donations, we recommend displaying the Sea-Eye x YOU posters at your activity and telling people about your campaign.

Once you have started a campaign on this website, you will automatically see different ways to share it. This helps you gain supporters and draw attention to your campaign. If you want to share your idea before launching and motivate others to join in, take a look at Tips & Tricks. We have collected message ideas and arguments that may fit you and your idea.

Every euro raised saves lives. If your fundraising goal is exceeded, that is wonderful: it means more missions can be carried out and more people can receive help.
If fewer donations come in, the money raised still helps. Every contribution makes a difference. Just as important are the stories, your commitment and the lived solidarity we are showing together this summer.
