When our summer interns set out to find worthy organizations to help with the LexJet #brandUP project, our friends over at Mote Marine Laboratory & Aquarium were an undeniable choice.

These world-class scientists and staff work year-round to conduct research, save animals and educate the public near and far. Now in its 60th year, the Sarasota-headquartered Mote has expanded to five operations around Florida and continues to attract visitors, open new exhibits and change the way the world thinks about the ocean and how we all interact with it.
