The TURTLE FOUNDATION has been running a particularly successful conservation project on Sangalaki island off Borneo in Indonesia since the year 2000.
As a result of this project more than 350'000 turtles are saved annually.
Thanks to high efficiency, practically no administrative overhead costs and lots of volunteer work the annual budget for the initial project could be kept low.
The total cost for saving one turtle is only about 13 Cents.
The TURTLE FOUNDATION currently has the opportunity to expand the initial project and to increase the turtles saved per year to over one million.
In addition to its own projects, the Turtle Foundation supports other local projects in the protection of sea turtles.
