The campaign has now expired but it's not too late to support this charity.
Visit the charity's profileFor the 3rd year running we want you to join us to 'Cross the Oceans' virtually to raise money for our charity's conservation work, and we want you to JOIN US on our epic challenge.
This year we plan to set off the Manta Caribbean Project in Mexico to reach the Peru Mobulid Project in South America, where oceanic manta rays are frequently sighted.
Whether it's running, cycling, kayaking or swimming - every mile you do will help us raise money to fund:
- Research in manta populations worldwide and work with governments to implement protected areas.
- Workshops with local fisheries and governments to enforce conservation measures already in place.
- Education in communities and schools about manta and devil rays.
- Promotion of manta ray protection at important national summits and conferences.
Our work in the last 12 years has helped make significant changes to legislation and protection of manta & devil rays, will you join us so we can continue to do more?
Sink or swim, so the saying goes. As a charity, we would not survive without the amazing support of our followers. Your actions and generosity give us the strength we need to keep on swimming. So, to all those who are prepared to swim, cycle or run the extra mile for us in this challenge, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Dr Guy Stevens, CEO Manta Trust
