Yes, You Can Still Be a Hero

There are many seals and sea lions like Osprey in our care right now. Some are orphaned and others are injured, but they all have one thing in common: they need your help to return home for the holidays. 

When you give today, your gift will be matched up to $3,000 by your fellow ocean lovers, Barbara and David Beasley. And your matched donation will be put right to work where it’s needed most. Yes, you will help provide double the meals and meds an animal needs for a second chance at life.

Marine Science Sunday Interactive Programs

Join us in person on the second and fourth Sunday of each month for a live program focused on a variety of marine science topics.

Visit our hospital and visitor center in Sausalito, California, to learn more about what The Marine Mammal Center is doing to help save marine mammals found along the California coast and beyond, and learn more about how you can help.

These interactive presentations hosted by our award-winning educators feature multimedia, pictures, video and more to share the stories of amazing marine mammals and the Center’s efforts to ensure the health of these animals and our ocean.
