The mission of the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Center is the conservation and preservation of all species of marine turtles, both in the water and on the beach. We accomplish this through the rescue, care, and release of sick and injured sea turtles, public education regarding the plight of sea turtles and the threat of their extinction, and learning opportunities for students of biology, wildlife conservation, and veterinary medicine from around the world.

Kabul Small Animal Rescue (KSAR), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, was founded in Kabul by Charlotte Maxwell-Jones, a U.S. citizen, in 2018, and she also serves as its chief executive . The chief mission of KSAR is to care for the numerous stray animals of Kabul, especially dogs and cats. Animals are bought to KSAR’s shelter, where they receive medical treatment, sterilization, rabies vaccinations, food, water, shelter, as well as affection and play until they are evacuated to forever homes of their own (usually overseas, primarily in the USA). But human lives have also been enriched by KSAR. With the exception of Maxwell-Jones, the on-site staff of KSAR,

Coral Reef CPR was established to conserve, protect and restore the world's coral reefs through research, reef rehabilitation, education and outreach, and citizen involvement. Our aim is to create change in countries with coral reef environments. Our in-country programs involve: (i) habitat characterization, reef assessment and monitoring; (ii) reef clean-up activities and removal pest species (iii) ecological restoration; (iv) education and training of local communities, school children, resort and dive center staff and tourists; and (v) outreach and raising awareness. (vi) user group participation in conservation activities. Our goal is to enhance the capacity of local communities, tourists and various user groups so they can take ownership of their coral reefs better understand the problems facing reefs, and take simple steps to reduce the threats and enhance reef conservation. We achieve this through our education program and "citizen science" where we involve communities, students, local divers and dive operators, visitors, local marine biologists and resort staff in all our projects and initiatives. We engage various stakeholders, students and visitors in our coral reef workshops, and allow them to participate in our in-water monitoring and rehabilitation efforts. Our mission is to understand and reduce threats affecting coral reefs, promote sustainable management of reef resources and rehabilitate degraded reef ecosystems through scientific research, education, community involvement, and outreach.

The Humane Society of York County (HSYC) is a local non-profit organization dedicated to the humane treatment of animals. We are located in Fort Mill, South Carolina and serve the greater Charlotte region including York, Lancaster and Mecklenburg counties. We successfully placed over 513 animals in loving homes last year preventing them from being euthanized. In an effort to stop future overpopulation, we require that all adopted animals be spayed or neutered before leaving this shelter. Mission Our mission is to prevent animal suffering; to help reduce overpopulation by promoting spaying and neutering, to educate the public about animal welfare and to place adoptable animals in loving homes. We advocate for animal welfare legislation and support the prosecution of animal abusers. "When we say we want to find a 'forever' home for our animals, we mean a family that will treat them like a true member of their family. Beyond healthy food and a warm protected bed, they deserve attention and acknowledgement through training and grooming. They deserve love until the end of their days. We want this for all animals beyond the scope of our small shelter. For all the animals we bring in that have been abused, unloved, neglected, there are so many more that we don't see who desperately need help. Animal welfare laws are imperative to make people stop mistreating animals. A slap on the hand doesn't work. So many out there don't even have the basics that the 'laws' require - food, shelter from the elements, and water. Just trying to make the laws stronger for these animals is a full time effort and there is no time to try to be extremists. For the love and companionship they provide to us, we speak for them and all those out there who are alone and hungry."
