There are seven species of sea turtles throughout the entire world. All of them are either threatened or endangered.
Each year between April and September, female sea turtles come to shore to lay their eggs. These hatchlings only have a 1 in 1,000 chance of surviving to adulthood. Ghost crabs, raccoons, birds, and foxes prey on baby turtles, impacting their survival. But humans are also a large threat.
We’re working with local organizations to protect nests by providing cameras to monitor their activity, shelter hatchlings from light pollution, and use informative signage to let beachgoers know to stay away from the area. By intervening the moment a sea turtle lays her eggs, we can ensure as many hatchlings as possible make it to the ocean.
Sea turtles need our help more than ever to survive. Donate now to protect nests and help the next generation of sea turtles thrive.

At Greater Good Charities, we believe the well-being of people, animals, and the environment are all interconnected. Disruption to one part can ripple across entire ecosystems. That’s why we’re dedicated to protecting species that are at-risk, threatened, and endangered in their habitats.
Since our inception, Greater Good Charities has protected more than 30 endangered species and more than 1.2 million acres of habitat. We use a holistic approach by mitigating conflict between humans and wildlife, responding during natural disasters and extreme weather events, providing food and medical care to animals, and more.
To ensure threatened and endangered sea turtles can survive and thrive, Greater Good Charities is committed to working with local organizations to give hatchlings a fighting chance at survival.
Greater Good Charities has ultimate authority and discretion with regard to the distribution of its funds. All expenditures made are consistent with the exempt purposes of Greater Good Charities.
