Are you still looking for that gift for the person who has everything? How about a baby seal? Maybe a hammerhead shark? I’m sure they don’t have those, right?
If you’re looking for a fun and unique gift that also helps a great cause, then please check into Adopt-A-Creature from Oceana.
Oceana’s Adopt a Creature set offers online shoppers up to 6 sea creature cookie cutters and 4 sea creature plush toys they can virtually adopt in someone else’s name. Gift recipients receive an adoption certificate, creature facts and a sugar cookie recipe with the cookie cutters. You can view all creature options at http://www.oceana.org/adopt. This year as part of their 2009 Adopt a Creature program they teamed up with one of their youngest supporters to help promote their holiday program. 12-year old sea turtle advocate Casey Sokolovic was a finalist for their Ocean Heroes contest this year and has an inspiring story volunteering for a local sea turtle rescue center in her home state of North Carolina. As part of her efforts, she baked thousands of sea turtle cookies and held bake sales that raised over $3,000 for the protection of these beloved creatures. In her honor they have created a special sea turtle adoption package valued at $200. For more information on Casey you can visit the Ocean hero page: www.Oceana.org/heroes.
Oceana was kind enough to send us a sample adoption package and we have enjoyed learning more about Oceana’s great work to protect the seas. Free shipping on these adoption packages will end on December 15, so get your order in quickly to take advantage!
