My Travel Story

by: Macee Benfield Start Date: Apr 30, 2025 - End Date: Apr 29, 2026
As a Marine Science and Conservation Biology student, I’m passionate about protecting our oceans and ecosystems. I have the incredible opportunity to study abroad in Bonaire and the Galápagos Islands, two of the most unique and biodiverse marine environments on Earth. These programs will provide hands-on experience in scientific diving, coral reef ecology, animal behavior, and conservation science—skills essential for my future career. I’ll also learn about local sustainability efforts and global environmental challenges. Your support will help fund travel, fieldwork, and training costs, allowing me to grow as a scientist and contribute meaningfully to marine conservation efforts.
