10% of proceeds are donated to the Sea Turtle Conservancy with every Turtleball® purchase! Your support benefits sea turtle conservation by contributing to the activities of the STC, the world’s oldest and most accomplished sea turtle research and conservation organization! STC is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) membership organization based in Gainesville, Florida. STC was founded in 1959 by Mr. Joshua B. Powers in response to renowned ecologist Dr. Archie Carr’s award-winning book, The Windward Road, which first alerted the world to the plight of sea turtles. Dr. Carr served as Scientific Director of STC from 1959 until his death in 1987. Since its inception, STC has played a crucial role in saving the Caribbean green turtle from the brink of extinction. With nearly 60 years of experience in sea turtle conservation, research, and education, they have also raised global awareness and protection for sea turtles. STC started its journey in Costa Rica and has since expanded its research and conservation efforts throughout Central America and the Wider Caribbean.
