CIMWI needs your help!
CIMWI is dedicated to marine conservation and plays a crucial role in preserving marine biodiversity. We are on the front lines saving marine mammals, and more animals are stranding in need of our help.
By the end of May, CIMWI had rescued 80% more animals than last year. Our fish cost tripled, and all our expenses increased with this influx of patients.
We need your financial support to help with these unexpected costs.
Please help CIMWI save lives and donate today!
