  You define exactly who makes up your “family.
It might be the traditional mom/dad/kids/ family, with grandparents/aunts/uncles/cousins thrown in.
Or maybe there’s a group of you at work,

or you’re part of a gang who has been friends since grade school.


Print the
 OFFICIAL GIVING FORM.
Decide who’s in your family, then put your game faces on and come up with some creative ways to get together your $1,000 donation for our building fund.

Your family name will appear on a plaque, which will be permanently displayed in our new facility. You can also make your donation anonymously.
 

Flipper hugs in advance.
350 Families raising $1000 will meet our funding goals!!
With your help we will succeed.

THE UGLY SIDE  OF GILL NETS

Untended gill nets are lethal for sea turtles.  This turtle couldn't escape, the net or the people.

IT'S ALIVE!!
Check out the
 TURTLE CAM

and watch sea turtles go through their day.

BALLOONS and TURTLES don't mix
Discarded balloons drift into the water
and are mistaken for food by sea turtles and other marine animals.
Shackleford III was lucky to be able to pass these ingested pieces of balloons.


A Special THANKS to our many visitors.
Your interest and support assures our success
Your tax deductible contributions are much appreciated
