We are excited to announce that, thanks to this donation, Proyecto Akupara will be able to continue helping Leatherback and Loggerhead turtles. The funds will be used to make adjustments to their sea turtle nursery and to purchase much-needed equipment for volunteers conducting daily patrols. In addition, Akupara plans to implement a project to lower nest temperatures, which have been too high due to global warming, using a special material. Furthermore, we will be supporting a joint project between Akupara and the Tourtugas Foundation to create a community library. This library will serve as an educational resource for children in the area and tourists, focusing on sea turtles and how our actions can help protect them.
