Volunteers moved efforts to raise funds for CREMA<\/h1>\n

IN TIMES OF COVID-19\u2026CREATIVITY AND LOVE FOR LIFE MOVE US TO INNOVATE.<\/p>\n

This group of friends (The Hummel family), had assisted our community-based sea turtle conservation projects in the past through Turtle Trax<\/a>, a private wildlife conservation organization that provides volunteer labour to CREMA<\/a>, a Costa Rican endangered marine species conservation non-profit organization.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, this year they were unable to come and help us out because of the COVID-19 crisis.\u00a0\u00a0So, they figured a way to keep on helping.\u00a0 They developed and sold these facial masks to help the organization remotely.<\/p>\n

The sale of this product among their friends and family alone, all of whom are fully identified with the MARINE CONSERVATION CAUSE, has allowed for the raising of US$4000, which will be donated to CREMA to contribute with sea turtle protection on nesting beaches in tandem with coastal communities.<\/p>\n

On behalf of CREMA and Turtle Trax, many thanks to Christopher and Sebastian Hummel and everyone who joined the effort. Marine turtles also appreciate it.<\/p>\n
