“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”  –Winston Churchill

 

Since 1995, the Aquarium has made a vital difference in the health of Tampa Bay, the Gulf and beyond.  Our donors have the unique opportunity to take part in this endeavor by contributing financial support.  The generosity of our donors is an investment in our organization and the work we do.  Without their support, we wouldn’t be able to fulfill our mission.  The gifts we receive provide aid for:

  • Rescue and rehabilitation efforts for sea turtles, otters, and other marine mammals
  • Continued underwater archaeology efforts at Little Salt Spring in Sarasota County
  • Restoring and re-growing coral reefs
  • Investigations of Tampa Bay's ship wrecks through scientific diving
  • Sponsored admissions and summer camps for underserved, at-risk children and teens
  • Continued environmental and science education enrichment experiences for students of all ages
