The Nautilus Society
Your Gift Matters
The Aquarium of the Pacific established the Nautilus Society to honor and recognize donors who have expressed their commitment to animal well-being, conservation, and education by including the Aquarium of the Pacific in their estate and financial plans. These gifts provide a lasting legacy for the Aquarium and the community. Nautilus Society members know that through their generosity the Aquarium’s conservation and education programs will touch the lives of generations to come.
When you become a member of the Nautilus Society, we will show our ongoing appreciation with the following:
- Invitations to exclusive events throughout the year
- Recognition on our donor wall
- Recognition in our annual impact report
- Insider information about the Aquarium’s exhibits and programs
- Direct access to personal service from the Development Department staff.
Thank you for your support of the Aquarium’s mission now and in the future. Your philanthropic legacy will long be remembered for generations to come.
