About Us
Mission: 

One Hundred Miles (OHM) is a coastal conservation nonprofit organization working to protect Georgia’s coast through advocacy, education, and community engagement. Since its founding in 2013, OHM has grown from a bold idea into an influential, highly respected organization with a talented staff, an engaged board, a broad network of advocates, strong philanthropic support, trusted relationships, and a record of impact in protecting the landscapes, wildlife, communities, and quality of life that make coastal Georgia extraordinary.

Programs: 

OHM’s vision is a future in which coastal Georgia’s people, wildlife, and environment thrive. Its work spans responsible development, land use, water, wetlands, climate resilience, wildlife, environmental health, education, and community engagement. OHM combines grassroots organizing, public education, policy and legislative advocacy, scientific information, relationship building, and coalition leadership.

The organization has built an advocacy network of more than 43,000 people and has demonstrated an ability to work locally, statewide, and with national partners. OHM is bold in taking a stand on issues and does not shy away from litigation, public advocacy, or grassroots organizing.

Why Work For Us?: 

One Hundred Miles is built on a foundation of love for our coast, a commitment to justice, and a desire to make these 100 miles a better place for all. Our work is strengthened by the collective dedication and hard work of those who choose to lead with us: our members, partners, advocates, education participants, and friends.

OHM is leading the way as an innovative nonprofit. We invest in our staff and their families, provide professional development opportunities, and promote a healthy work-life balance across our organization—bolstering our long-term business model by investing in One Hundred Miles’ most valuable asset: our employees.
