ADOPT A TURTLE
Turtles are under threat like never before.
THE PERFECT GIFT FOR ANIMAL LOVERS đ
Supercharge your impact by selecting an ongoing adoption from as little as $15 per month. Youâll receive regular email updates so you can see the difference your generous support is making.
Monthly donations make it easier to plan for the long-term, helping to keep administration costs down and providing a huge boost to vital conservation work. Youâll always be in control of your giving and can easily contact us should your circumstances change.
Protect spectacular sea turtles and their ocean home
Every day, turtles are threatened by the loss of their nesting beaches to coastal developments, face accidental capture by commercial fishing, and are traded illegally for their shells.
Thereâs also the deadly legacy left by plastic. An estimated 9 million metric tonnes enter our oceans every year, choking and smothering turtles and other sea creatures.
You can help protect these incredible seafarers by symbolically adopting a turtle today and helping to repopulate and restore their watery habitats for generations to come. Your generosity will be a symbol of your support for conversation and animal advocacy, ensuring our magnificent turtles remain in our waters forever.
And for every turtle you assist, you'll also help other marine life as well as teaching younger generations about the importance of conservation.
