Double Your Impact for an Endangered Seal

With fewer than 2,000 Hawaiian monk seals left, each one needs us now more than ever. In honor of Endangered Species Day this month, your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $10,000—doubling your impact for these endangered animals—when you donate by Thursday, May 15.

Right now, these two Hawaiian monk seals are at our hospital and depend on caring people like you to help provide the meals, meds and care they need for a second chance. You can be their hope with your matched gift today.

Double my impact!

Book a Tour to Meet Our Patients

This patient is a southern sea otter, a threatened species. Because sea otters are very dexterous and curious, we retrofitted several pool areas at our hospital to provide a safe space for juvenile and adult sea otters to receive life-saving care.

Many sea otters strand suffering from domoic acid toxicosis, toxoplasmosis, injury and other ailments.
