You’ve forged your own giving relationship with animals, the 
oceans, and the environment.

You’ve chosen to live your life in support of others.

You deserve to touch beauty more.

it’s beyond rare

Sanctuary pioneers have spent years selecting and working in challenging physical environments, building infrastructure, training teams, and preparing sites. Individually, they have transported whales across continents to new homes, but this is the first time that they are meeting specifically to expedite the release of captive animals worldwide, and develop a collective plan for their future.

Join them, and the two belugas brought to their wild home from China, as they decide how existing and future sanctuaries can take in the whales and dolphins already being offered for release, and the thousands more in captivity.

This is the chance to change the future for them all.
