Thanks for taking the time to read about and vote for this exciting project. We've helped many communities and sea turtles already in our first year and are moving quickly to expand that success in year 2!
Let us know if we can help you connect with the right SEE Turtles location.

I fully support this idea even as a competitor in this contest. Not sure if you are aware but there is a sea turtle research center in Jekyll Island, Georgia (USA). I'm not affiliated with them whatsoever, but their website is www.georgiaseaturtlecenter.org/ . They had a small but interesting educational and rehabilitative program there for turtles.
As a diver, it's an easy project to support as well. Nothing quite like seeing sea turtles in their natural habitat. Best of luck!
I can't think of a better way of taking time off; relaxing while learning and helping to conserve an endangered specie and its environment. I just read an article in the lastest New Yorker of 5 definate species that are are now extinct. The sea turtle cannot become part of that list.
