How can I get involved?

You can join us and be part of the efforts to conserve natural resources in northwestern and western Mexico and to strengthen the organizations that protect them.

There are different ways you can get involved:

Stephanie Montero Bending is a Mexican open water swimmer, who will swim for a cause in favor of the conservation of the humpback whale and the marine ecosystem in Banderas Bay, Jalisco-Nayarit. The objective of this initiative is to make visible the environmental problems that require the collaboration of all sectors and citizens.

In November 2023, Stephanie swam 37.5 km in Banderas Bay for 14 hours straight. The amount raised was allocated to activities that contribute to the conservation of the humpback whale and the marine ecosystem.

From May 20 to 26 of this year, Stephanie will do an even more impressive sporting feat, as she will swim 127 km in Banderas Bay. Almost 4 times more than she swam last year! The proceeds will be donated to contribute to the conservation of the humpback whale through an integral strategy with the following actions:

• Environmental education

• Whale watching surveillance.

• “Bahía Cero” Campaign.

• Coral cultivation and monitoring.

• Entangled whale rescue.

• Ghost fishing nets recovery.

The goal is 1 million pesos!
