1. For the animal lover:
Bogey Adopt-a-Seal® with plush
If you just love love, this Adopt-a-Seal® is the perfect gift. When you symbolically adopt harbor seal Bogey (or one of our other popular patients like a sea otter, sea lion or dolphin!) your purchase will provide the food and medical care the next sick or injured patient needs to return to their ocean home. Keep it simple with a personalized certificate that features your animal’s story from rescue to release, or increase your impact by upgrading to a gift package that includes a plush!
2. For the jewelry aficionado:
A pair of seaglass earrings
If jewelry is your loved one’s preferred gift, these delicately crafted earrings are the perfect way to show you care. These blue dangle earrings are made with recycled glass and sterling silver.
3. For the loungewear champion:
A pair of cozy sea otter socks
Let your loved one snuggle up and show off their sea otter love with these fun socks. Made with 63 percent cotton, these otterly adorable socks will keep your loved one warm and stylish.
4. For the beach lover:
An organic cotton beach towel that shows off what they care about
If your loved one is crazy about the beach, they’ll be thrilled when they open their gift and find marine mammal swag inside. This towel is not only fun and eye-catching, but it’s also lightweight, sand-resistant and eco friendly.
5. For the one who has everything:
A gift and eCard in their honor
This is perfect gift that gives back for someone who doesn’t need more stuff. A donation to The Marine Mammal Center in honor of your loved one has a big impact on ocean conservation. Send a personalized eCard with your donation and let them know how they gave a second chance to a marine mammal. You can even schedule your eCard to be sent immediately or on a specific date.
6. For the distant loved one:
Name a whale in honor or memory of a loved one
This is a unique opportunity to name a whale while supporting the conservation of these gentle giants. With your support of $2,500, your name or your designated honoree’s name will be added to a humpback whale’s record in Happywhale, a worldwide whale sighting database used by organizations, institutes and researchers.
