What is the Global Impact Grant?

After more than 45 years, Sea Turtle Inc. has grown from its modest grassroots beginning to a worldwide name known for its tireless conservation efforts, decisive cold stun response, and innovative medical care. In 2024, we adopted a vision statement of a world with thriving sea turtle populations and decided to focus our reputation, funding, and efforts on helping small organizations across the globe make meaningful movement towards that vision. Since the launch of the Global Impact Grant, we have already funded more than $350,000 in research and conservation efforts across seven countries. We know that as we deepen our dedication to our vision, we can create global change and lasting impact to bring about a world with thriving sea turtle populations.

Applications are now CLOSED

Applications are typically open from August-October of each year but may be delayed due to Nesting Season. 

We are looking for small projects focused on sea turtle conservation who can make the most impact but lack the necessary funding. Both single and multi-year projects are welcome to apply. Priority may be given to projects dealing with particular species and regions within a given funding cycle, but all projects are welcome to apply! 

No applications will be accepted after the October deadline that will be posted on this site when applications are open. 

All projects should begin by January of the following year after the application process.
