    Please note that submitting a donation request does not guarantee the request will be approved. If your request is selected to be fulfilled, you will receive a donation by mail 5 - 30 days prior to your event date.

    SeaWorld receives many more requests than we can support. Denial of a request does not imply that an organization's mission is not important or valid.

    Due to the large volume of requests received, we are unable to respond to phone requests, follow-up calls or emails.

    Thank you and best of luck with your fundraising endeavors!
