Good Reef Related Charity?

[mbierzyc]

I'm looking to donate to a charity that helps protect coral reefs. I imagine there are people on this board that are more familiar with these types of charities than I am, and would appreciate any help on locating some good ones.

Thanks,

Matt

Reef Relief is a good targeted group in the Keys that work towards reef oriented conservation as well as education. For a larger focus, Oceana also does great work in the field. Personally, I've always donated to the smaller groups myself. There is also Reef Ball which also does great targeted work.. they have a wider geographic focus and are a bit better known than Reef Relief.

There are many others. Even donating to a public aquarium could go towards assisting reefs.

Read around on Reef Balls, it may change your mind about giving money to them.
