Beer benefits sea turtles

Sea turtles throughout the Caribbean are set to benefit from a recently announced partnership between SABMiller and the Wider Caribbean Sea Turtle Conservation Network.

Funds, raised for the programme through the sale of specially branded cans of Miller Lite, will go toward

protecting sea turtles in the region through advocacy, research, education, and volunteer programmes. The conservation initiatives include beach clean-ups and other community-based activities that impact sea turtle habitats.

The Cayman Islands Department of Environment represents the Caribbean wide conservation network locally and will benefit directly from the funds raised in Cayman through the partnership with SABMiller.

“We believe this important partnership with WIDECAST will make a tremendous difference in helping to preserve our coastal environments. Few places in the world owe as much to sea turtles as do the Cayman Islands,” said Frank Roulstone, general manager of Cayman Distributors, the local distributor for Miller Lite.
