TITRAA

TITRAA is a non-profit organization founded by Alex Ceddia and Graysen Ledbetter in 2013. The goal of TITRAA is to save turtles that have crawled out into the road that don't have a chance to escape a moving vehicle coming towards them.

 

TITRAA was inspired by a tragic experience during the summer of 2013, when we were driving down a side street and saw a turtle start to wander onto the road. We decided to go back and try to remove it from the road and help it cross. As soon as we pulled over on the side of the road, a car coming the opposite direction passed and ran over the turtle. We have saved countless turtles personally and encourage others to just be more aware of them and do the same or take them to a place like a pond or a park where it's more safe for them to roam freely.
