Donation Information

We are offering you an opportunity to assist and show that you care. Your continued support will make a significant difference in saving the African penguin from extinction. Unless significant efforts are made, conservation experts believe the species will be extinct within four years. You may be able to visit our facility in Cape Recife today to see the penguins, but your grandchildren may only see a photograph.

Making Gifts

Any donation, no matter how large or small, will help the penguins continue to survive. When you donate to us, the money is used in a variety of ways: It may fuel our rescue trips; buy fish and medicine for our patients; help to maintain our facilities or fund our education programme about marine conservation to South Africa's children. 

Choose a penguin disc and we will proudly display it on our Wall of Honour engraved with the name of your choice. By doing this you will not only be helping save a penguin's life, but also be remembered forever as someone who made a difference. We offer you three choices:

- Penguin on silver: R500

- Penguin on gold: R2 000

- Large penguin on gold: R10 000
