Personal message
My name is Carina Hambloch, and I am diving headfirst into a physical and mental challenge to protect our oceans, and I would be honoured if you would consider supporting my cause.
As an avid swimmer, I have always felt a profound connection with the ocean's vastness, its beauty, and the incredible life that thrives within its depths. However, in recent years, I have witnessed firsthand the devastating impact of pollution and habitat destruction on our marine ecosystems, especially here on the KZN coast. The time to act is now, and I am determined to make a difference.
On 16 and 17 June 2023, I will be swimming in the Oceans 8 Charity Swim 2023 in support of WildTrust to raise awareness and funds for ocean conservation. By pushing my limits, I aim to inspire others to recognize the urgency of the situation and encourage them to join the global effort to protect our oceans.
Your generous support can have a profound impact on this mission. By contributing to my cause, you will directly support vital initiatives focused on cleaning up our coastlines, restoring damaged habitats, implementing sustainable fishing practices, and raising awareness about the importance of marine conservation.

WILDTRUST (registered as the Wildlands Conservation Trust – IT No.4329/1991/PMB) is a South African Non-Profit, Non-Government and Public Welfare Organisation, established in 2004 through the merger of two regional Trusts. It pursues the realisation of its vision of “A thriving and resilient world” through two core programmes: WILDLANDS and WILDOCEANS.
WILDLANDS focuses on conserving terrestrial biodiversity, empowering and uplifting communities through training as well as the protection of wildlife.
WILDLOCEANS focuses on marine conservation, advocating for healthy oceans, marine protected areas and the conservation of marine species. Furthermore, WILDOCEANS conducts extensive research and training for future marine experts and policymakers.
From humble roots in the KwaZulu-Natal Province, the Trust has expanded its footprint across Southern Africa, with projects as far afield as Mozambique and Comoros. The WILDTRUST continues to explore innovative conservation and development pathways that underline the interconnectedness between people and the planet.
