A new boat fundraiser has been launched to help Sea Turtle Inc. save and protect sea turtles. With only 1000 tickets sold, this is a once and a lifetime chance to win a boat, trailer, and motor valued at more than $60,000.00 and save a sea turtle at the same time.
The boat will be raffled off, with 100% of proceeds going to Sea Turtle, Inc.
“A fundraiser of this size is such a huge opportunity for Sea Turtle Inc. We are so grateful to Dargel Boats, Cleve and Miriam Ford, and Suzuki Marine for making this possible. Sea Turtle Inc is completely dependent on public help to protect and provide medical care to sea turtles. This fundraiser is going to significantly move the needle for us and the impact we can have on our mission,” stated Wendy Knight, CEO of Sea Turtle Inc.
Sea Turtle, Inc.is currently in nesting season on South Padre Island, and this summer alone the small organization has protected more than 8,700 kemp’s ridley sea turtle eggs, working tirelessly to aid this endangered species.
The raffle will be held on Saturday, August 26th, at Sea Turtle Inc. Raffles tickets are available online at https://seaturtleinc.org/boat-
Tickets are $100 each, and only 1,000 tickets will be sold.
