2024 Year End Campaign
Will you join our mission?
The Galapagos Islands are a living laboratory of evolution, home to thousands of unique species, and a symbol of what conservation can achieve. But they are also at risk from threats like invasive species, warming oceans, and climate change.
By donating to the Charles Darwin Foundation, you are directly contributing to the protection of this irreplaceable ecosystem for future generations. This year, as we celebrate 65 years, join our Year-End Campaign to continue our work to protect the future of Galapagos.

Science informs action
Pioneering studies that inform policy and conservation strategies.
We deploy satelitte tags on sharks to understand their migration patterns and inform better management of protected areas, as well as more sustainable fishing practices.
