About the company

Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center Foundation, Inc. is a non-profit organization that manages marine mammal and sea turtle stranding networks in Virginia. Registered with the federal government since 2004, the Foundation receives grant funding primarily from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to support its marine conservation and research efforts. The organization's mission is to inspire conservation of the marine environment through education, research, and sustainable practices. As a permitted entity by NOAA Fisheries Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Commonwealth of Virginia, the Foundation plays a crucial role in responding to marine mammal and sea turtle strandings along Virginia's coastlines and tidal waters.

The Foundation's primary services funded through federal grants include coordinating expert marine mammal stranding response in Virginia. This encompasses retaining experienced staff for response, recovery, rehabilitation, euthanasia, and necropsy of stranded and entangled marine mammals. The organization collects and analyzes Level A, B, and C data from stranded animals, conducts detailed examinations of human interaction lesions, and maintains a biomonitoring program for Brucella infections in cetaceans. Additionally, the Foundation manages a statewide volunteer stranding network, provides emergency medical care and rehabilitation for live stranded animals, and maintains state marine mammal and sea turtle stranding databases. The organization also conducts educational outreach programs and participates in scientific research, such as studying the effects of environmental exposure on wound vitality in bottlenose dolphins. Funding for these activities comes primarily through NOAA's Marine Mammal Data Program, with additional support from the Virginia Coastal Zone Management Program, administered by the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality.
