Artificial Coral Reefs to fund kids swim lessons!
Organization information
Beyond The Reef
Location: Road Town, United States of America
Summary
Did you know that coral loss in the Caribbean is at 80%? And that 9 out of 10 kids on our ISLAND don't know how to swim? Our goals for "BVI Art Reef": 1- Create desperately needed habitat for aquatic species and coral ecosystems to thrive in. 2- Fund local children's swim programs by charging a $5 fee to visitors on the sites (this money goes directly to swim lessons). 3- Create eco-positive publicity for BVI to encourage sustainable jobs and tourism. 4- Recycle hurricane damaged vessels.
