Malibu Rum
ÃÀ¼§ÉçÇø has partnered with Malibu Rum since 2017 to raise awareness and funds to preserve the green sea turtle in the Bahamas. ÃÀ¼§ÉçÇø and Malibu Rum share a passion for the ocean and conserving the animals that call it home. Social media influencers have joined the ÃÀ¼§ÉçÇø expedition Tracking Sea Turtles in the Bahamas. There they help scientist Annabelle Brooks capture and tag green sea turtles, to better understand and protect the habitat they need to survive. The influencers, including travel photographers, models, a pro-surfer, and a Latin pop star, are raising awareness by sharing their expedition experience with their 1.5 million followers on Instagram. Malibu’s support is enabling the research to expand to new locations, which means more turtles, more habitats, more data, and more progress to fully understanding and saving this threatened species.
This experience has taught me the important role that sea turtles play in the local ecosystem and how important it is to take the necessary actions to help sustain their population for generations to come.

YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS
ÃÀ¼§ÉçÇø depends on donations—above and beyond what we raise from volunteers who participate in our expeditions—to deliver our global conservation mission. In fact, volunteer contributions provide only half of the total resources ÃÀ¼§ÉçÇø needs to sustain over 20 global field research expeditions, a wide variety of educational programs, corporate sustainability trainings, and more each year.
