Volunteer Spotlight: Dr. Manny Eusebio

Dr. Manny Eusebio models exceptional Green Boater practices and does so proudly and with the health of our larger community in mind! Manny and his wife, Chris, moved their family’s sailboat to Bellingham from Seattle, where he continues to support the health of children as a pediatrician with Peace Health. In Dr. Manny’s volunteer time, he has been actively volunteering for the US Coast Guard as a member of the USCG Auxiliary, deepening his maritime knowledge.

When asked why he prioritizes stewardship and “leaving a clean wake,” Manny, a biologist at heart, said, “Caring for the marine environment is foundational to caring for life on our planet."

Thank you, Manny, for all you do for Friends and the Salish Sea! Manny recently volunteered to captain his boat for a new Friends of the San Juans corporate partnership to highlight our Immersive Salish Sea education program, which serves all island high schools.

Joan and I love this tiny corner of paradise and know that Mother Nature needs all the help she can get. We are solidly friends of the Friends of the San Juans.
