Help Us Take Kids to the Sea!

Hi, I’m Vanessa — an afterschool teacher and a dolphin-watching guide for 12 years in Cascais, Portugal.

I want to take my students (ages 10–16) on a dolphin-watching trip — a day to explore, learn, and truly feel the ocean.

Many of these kids have never been on a boat or seen the sea beyond the shore. By meeting dolphins in their natural habitat, they’ll discover that the ocean isn’t just a faraway mystery — it’s alive, fragile, and worth protecting.

One trip for 12 kids costs 600 euros, and that’s beyond what most families and schools can afford.

With your help, we can give them this life-changing experience — one that could spark future scientists, environmentalists, or simply more ocean-loving humans.
