Registry Details
The best gift will be your presence at our wedding. Optionally, contributions to the following will help us enjoy our wedding worry-free and with a clear conscience.
Carbonfund.org - Reduce what you can, offset what you can't
Offset your climate impact and help fight global warming through Carbonfund.org, which supports carbon-reducing projects such as renewable energy, energy efficiency and reforestation projects. A roundtrip flight from Seattle to Cancun emits a whopping 5 tons of CO2 (the impact of the average American is 23 tons per year). A guest from Seattle can offset their air, car and hotel impact with a donation of just $17. Visit our event page to calculate your impact and help reduce our wedding's carbon footprint to zero.Centro Ecologico Akumal (CEA) - Protect Turtles and Restore Reefs
Located
at Akumal's main bay, CEA is a non-profit, non-governmental
organization that conducts scientific investigations into the health of
the regional environment and reports the findings in educational ways
that touch the local Maya, the developers, the Akumal residents and
visitors alike. Donate at CEA's website online
or in person at the CEA in Akumal.NACER.org - Network for
Animal Care, Education, Resources
In
Spanish, Nacer means "to sprout" or "to be born." NACER.org
is a
non-profit organization supporting animal welfare and free
sterilization, rescue and
adoption, humane euthanasia, hurricane intervention and education in
the poorest areas of the Yucatan.
For all that I love about Mexico, it always breaks my heart to see the
friendly, hungry strays with no one to care for them. Donate
through our website at IDOfoundation.org or in
person at Akumal's Turtle Bay Cafe.Amnesty International - Protect Human Rights Around the World
Amnesty achieves change by lobbying governments and ambassadors, publicizing human rights abuses, and working closely with activists and other community organizations.

Donate through our website at IDOfoundation.org.Monetary Gifts to Steven and Reina - Wedding Fund
