Why sharks?
As apex predators, sharks are a crucial part of the marine food chain. Removing top predators such as sharks will threaten the delicate balance of ecosystems that are valuable sources of food and key elements In regulating our climate. In the long run, this affects our oceans' ability to absorb carbon, generate oxygen and regulate our climate. With our oceans relentlessly degrading, restoring sharks is crucial to enhancing the resilience of our oceans to climate change.
Why do we need your help?
HKSF receives funding primarily from individuals like you and the nature, extent, and success of their efforts are highly dependent on the commitment and support of our supporters and volunteers. HKSF's work is diverse, ranging across the areas of educational programs, corporate social responsibility advocacy, and public awareness-raising.
