Since 1977, Sea Shepherd has used innovative direct action tactics to defend, conserve and protect the delicately-balanced biodiversity of our seas and enforce international conservation laws. Our mission is to protect defenseless marine wildlife and end the destruction of habitat in the world’s oceans. Despite our relatively small size and limited resources, Sea Shepherd’s campaigns have been effective because we use direct action to achieve results, instead of billboards, petitions or protest marches. Our ships, mainly crewed by passionate volunteers, have saved over 6000 whales from the Japanese harpoon ships in the dangerous Antarctic waters.  Your donation will keep our ships running. See all our campaigns.

NOTE: All donations made to Sea Shepherd Global are processed by “Stichting Sea Shepherd Conservation Society” registered in the Netherlands.

There are many ways you can take action today to help defend, conserve and protect our oceans! You can volunteer for Our Global Campaigns at Sea or volunteer with Sea Shepherd where you live, start a fundraiser or donate Funds and Supplies.
