The Virginia Aquarium was looking for ways to get children engaged with the conservation side of the organization. Partnered with Beach Municipal FCU, we created a foldable sea turtle bank. Children are encouraged to save change and donate it to the Aquarium's non profit foundation. The top savers each quarter win special prizes and are entered into the grand prize drawing. The process also enforces basic math skills and practices tracking change deposits.
