Adopt a turtle, tree or coral reef star with the TUI Care Foundation

International

Baby turtle, tree and coral reef star adoptions now available online as a gift.

From today, the TUI Care Foundation is offering adoptions for baby turtles, newly planted trees and coral reef stars. The adoptions are also available online in a personalised gift version.

The adoptions support the worldwide TUI Turtle Aid programme, the TUI Care Foundation's reforestation initiative and the TUI Sea the Change programme. 100% of all proceeds go directly to the charitable Foundation’s programmes.

The TUI Turtle Aid programme protects endangered loggerhead turtles and their nesting sites on beaches and helps to increase hatchling survival rates. By working with local NGOs and beachfront tourism businesses, it also creates turtle friendly beaches and engages locals and visitors by teaching them about turtles and how to protect them.

The TUI Forests programme puts forests at the centre of thriving destination communities. It plants new trees and supports local people to build thriving livelihoods, through community managed tree nurseries and the creation of forest-based tourism experiences.

New adoption: Plant a coral reef star in Bali and receive a picture of your coral reef star with a name of your choice.

The adoption directly supports the TUI Care Foundation’s project partner Living Seas Foundation in Bali and the TUI Care Foundation’s TUI Sea the Change Programme. The programme focuses on ocean, coastal and marine ecosystems and on creating and expanding marine protected areas. As well as protecting and restoring coral reefs, mangroves, seaweed and seagrass, it safeguards sea animals and ensures the survival of important coastal ecosystems. It also supports the economic wellbeing of coastal communities which rely on tourism.

Adoptions are now available via this link.
