Dear Donor,

Thank you for your generous donation to Mote's intern program! I have loved Mote since I first visited 2 years ago and was beyond excited for this internship, however it would not have been possible without the scholarship I received because of your donation. This summer has been one of the best I've ever had and (not to be cheesy) but a total dream come true. Helping conduct research on the Sarasota Bay dolphin population helped me find my passion for marine mammals, research, and conservation and I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity and the people who made is possible, so thank you!

All the best,

Mary Whiteacre
