Billion Baby Turtles
Donation protected
Billion Baby Turtles supports sea turtle conservation organizations that work to protect sea turtle hatchlings across Latin America. The funds go towards paying local residents to patrol important turtle nesting beaches, protecting turtles that come up to nest, and ensuring that the eggs are protected. To date, we have saved more than 1 million hatchlings at important nesting beaches!
How Does Billion Baby Turtles Work?
SEE Turtles raises funds for turtle hatchling conservation from individuals, school fundraisers, green businesses, and commissions from our sea turtle tours. The funds are used to cover the costs of hiring local residents to patrol turtle nesting beaches and protecting the turtles and their nests.
At some projects, the cost to protect a hatchling is more than $1, in some places its less. We balance those costs so that the average comes out to at most $1 per hatchling saved. On average, we have helped save 5 hatchlings for every $1 donated.
