Key West Sea Turtle Club Donates to CFK Marine Science Scholarships

KEY WEST, FL, September 19, 2019— The Key West Sea Turtle Club continues its support of students at The College of the Florida Keys studying marine science with a donation of $1,000 to the scholarship fund in their name.

“We see this scholarship as an investment in the environment,” said the club’s president Ralph Capone. “By supporting the education of future generations of marine scientists, we’re helping to protect and restore marine ecosystems, which sea turtles and countless other organisms rely on.”

The Key West Sea Turtle Club is a volunteer-driven, nonprofit organization dedicated to the protection of threatened and endangered marine turtles and their habitats. When not scoping the beaches for turtle nests and monitoring eggs, the club sells t-shirts and holds events to raise money for this scholarship.
