🐋 We Did It. Orca Child In The Wild Is Officially Real.

2h (edited) • 🏆 Wins

May 29, 2026. Today the State of California approved our Initial Filing. Orca Child in the Wild is now a recognized Nonprofit Corporation, California Public Benefit.

I need to take a second to let that sink in.

We have been at this for a while now, my daughters dream is to be a marine biologist!

🐬This is not a pet a dolphin passion, although I know she still loves that part.

Jordyn is passionate about saving the ocean! 🌊

We have been grateful enough to be able to send her to sea camp a few years in a row and we challenge her to be her dream today, not to wait for it to come true tomorrow. We believe that dreams are meant to be lived! And straight out, So should you! 🔥🌟❤️‍🔥

What started as a kid who loves the ocean and a family who believed her is now an official organization, recognized by the state, built to protect the waters we all share. From the Los Angeles coast down to San Diego. The tide pools, the kelp forests, the rivers, the lakes, the ponds, and every creature that calls them home.

This is a legal status on paper, yes. But here is what it really means:

We can apply for grants and bigger partnerships, so our impact reaches further.
Donations to our mission carry real weight now, backed by a recognized public benefit nonprofit.
The work we have been pouring our hearts into has a permanent home.

This was a family effort and a major win and milestone.

We are on our way to cleaning up and protecting 120 miles of California coastline. 🏖️

We are now officially the Orca Child in the Wild Family
