PLEASE HELP SUPPORT THE NC AQUARIUMS SO WE CAN CONTINUE TO CREATE CONNECTIONS TO NATURE, SAVE SPECIES AND CARE FOR ANIMALS.

Like many other organizations, the North Carolina Aquariums were closed to the public for nearly six months, through the spring and summer of 2020, due to the COVID-19 crisis. This challenging situation resulted in the loss of more than $12 million in revenue. Yet, dedicated animal care never stopped–not then, not now.

Those lost funds are crucial to support critical conservation efforts, new animal habitats, engaging educational programs, important facility upkeep and expert animal care. You can help ensure our exceptional work continues through your tax-deductible gift to our 
Wishes for Fishes Campaign.

The NC Aquariums are state-operated. However, the majority of the NC Aquariums’ budget, more than 65%, is funded by admissions, program receipts and charitable contributions.
