Friends thank you for investing your time visiting my Social Vibe page in supporting the Whaleman Foundation.

I have been fortunate enough to communicate with Hayden a lot through Twitter and email on many topics including family and causes we are passionate about. The more I get to know her as a person, the more I have come to admire her passion for this project. As our friendship has grown, I have really come to admire her and feel inspired by her actions. I have learned that Hayden is not a celebrity endorsing animal rights, but rather a person with a belief and doing something with her celebrity to reach many people by spreading social awearness.

I am proud to say that I have become an activist for the cause as well. The majority of us may not have an opportunity to visit the Japanese village of Taiji, but Hayden has taught me that awearness is such a powerfull tool. Now most of you wont create a web page to carry on the message, but you can support the Whaleman Foundation, Hayden and myself by simply signing the petition and spreading the word as well. There are also links throughout this page of other ways that you can support. Thank you.

The Whaleman Foundation is a public IRS 501 (c) (3) non-profit research, education, conservation, and wildlife film production organization dedicated to preserving and protecting our ocean world. Whaleman's primary mission is to educate key decision makers, while raising public awareness, on the issues that affect cetaceans (dolphins, whales & porpoises) and their critical habitats through our films, research, campaigns, and media outreach.

		Peter Heller spent two months at sea aboard the eco-pirate ship Farley Mowat as it hunted down the Japanese whaling fleet in the ice and storms of Antarctica. The book is a wild high seas adventure set against the backdrop of brutal commercial whaling and an ocean in peril. This is the book that inspired me to learn more about this issue and become active in spreading the word. I have been fortunate to have met and worked with so many compassionate people that share the same beliefs that I have. Click on the book cover to go to Peter Heller's site.
