NGOs & Nonprofits
For search and rescue, humanitarian, research, and conservation organisations running lean, often volunteer-crewed vessels, where every euro and every hour on board has to count. Qualifying organisations can access Marad free or at a heavily discounted rate through Marad Community, our programme for non-profit and humanitarian fleets.
Part of Marad Community
Marad Community is our commitment to the non-profit and humanitarian maritime world: qualifying search and rescue, humanitarian, research, and conservation organisations get Marad free or at a heavily discounted rate.
The challenge
What we consistently hear from ngos & nonprofits operators before switching to Marad.
Enterprise fleet software is priced for commercial fleets
Most systems are built and priced for large operators, putting proper fleet management out of reach for non-profits.
Volunteer crews need something anyone can use
Rotating volunteers bring a wide range of maritime experience and no dedicated IT support to fall back on.
Donors and boards expect clear accountability
Grant funders and board members want straightforward reporting on vessel condition and how funds are used, without a finance team to produce it.
How Marad solves it
Practical improvements that ngos & nonprofits operators see within weeks of switching.
Free or discounted through Marad Community
Qualifying NGOs and non-profits get Marad free or at a heavily discounted rate through our Marad Community programme. Get in touch to see if your organisation qualifies.
Simple enough for volunteer crews
A clean interface anyone can pick up quickly, whatever their technical background or time spent on board.
Reporting your board and donors trust
Generate clear maintenance and operations reports to support grant applications and board oversight, without extra admin work.
Ready when it matters, connectivity or not
Full offline functionality, so the system keeps working during search and rescue or remote operations, not just alongside the quay.
The modules you'll use most
Marad is fully modular: start with what you need and expand as you grow.
All modules work offline. Pricing is per vessel per year, see pricing.
