Meet KP2 (Kauai Pup)... he was abandon by his mom and in captive care since the day he was born. There are many dedicated professionals and volunteers looking after him. KP is about 6 months old and getting stronger each day... KP needs your help! As part of his rehabilitation and release into the wild it is important he be monitored to ensure his health and ability to survive. So please donate whatever amount you can (big or small) to help cover the expense of the satellite tag and care. I would like to thank the volunteers from the Marine Mammal Center in California, to our very own here on Oahu, for the endless hours of looking after this amazing animal. ~donna~

Donations - Marine Mammal Center

I added a link to the Marine Mammal Center in California. This group does a lot of work in helping marine mammals. They have graciously agreed to accept donations that will go directly to the Hawaiian Monk Seal Recovery....

We (volunteers) are often asked where and how can people contribute.... well for the time being this is our best means. Please if you know any one or organization that is interested send them to the following links.... or let me know if you need more information.

I look forward to a time when we can do a big fund raiser....
