Fundraise for Marine Mammal Rescue

Rally your friends, family, classmates or coworkers to support marine mammal rescue.

By starting your own fundraiser, you are helping provide urgent care for seals, sea lions, sea otters and other marine animals along the BC coast.

Your support helps make rescue, rehabilitation and release possible.

Why Fundraise for VAMMR

Every year, the Vancouver Aquarium Marine Mammal Rescue Society (VAMMR) responds to hundreds of marine mammal emergencies.

Funds raised through your fundraiser help:

  • support rescue response for animals in distress
  • provide expert veterinary care
  • ensure animals have the best chance to return to the wild
  • sustain Canada’s only dedicated marine mammal rescue facility
