About our mission

Rescue * Rehabilitate * Release
The Marine Mammal Stranding Center (MMSC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 1978. MMSC is the only Federally-authorized rescue, rehabilitation, and release facility for marine mammals and the authorized first responders for sea turtle strandings & disentanglements in New Jersey. The Marine Mammal Stranding Center is dedicated to responding to marine mammals and sea turtles in distress along all of New Jersey's waterways, and to the rehabilitation of these animals for release back into the wild. We are further committed to the well-being of marine mammals and to inspire responsible stewardship through educational programs and collaborations.

No ordinary Tuesday

The GivingTuesday heart icon over a globe.

GivingTuesday is a global day of generosity held every year on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. It began in 2012 as a simple idea: set aside one day to give back after the shopping frenzy of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Since then, it's grown into a worldwide movement, with millions donating and volunteering—all on a single day.
