Order Your Limited Edition 2011 CORAL Calendar Today!
The twelve months of beautiful images featured in this calendar remind all of us at CORAL how important our donors are to our coral reef conservation successes. During the last year, supporters like you have protected coral reef animals and habitats by funding community-based activities including:
- Facilitating the successful creation and balloting of voluntary standards for marine tourism in West Hawaii.
- Sponsoring a week-long training course in ecotourism business design for residents of the Kubulau District of Fiji to help them benefit from the area’s reef-driven tourism industry.
- Helping to create the first-ever patrol program within the Eastern Misool Locally Managed Marine Area in Raja Ampat, Indonesia. The ranger patrol, while protecting against poaching, visits local villages to lend books to the schools through the “My Small Library” program.
- Co-sponsoring a “CSI for Coral Reefs” workshop that trained investigators in Belize to collect evidence that will help to win legal cases against individuals and corporations who damage coral reefs.
- Leading Sustainable Marine Recreation workshops for more than 400 local tour operators, boat captains, water taxi drivers, and cruise ship employees in the Bay Islands of Honduras.
- Funding the design, printing, and distribution of a waterproof “comic book” version of the Voluntary Standards for Marine Recreation in Mexico. This approach offers an engaging and memorable way to help marine tourism operators follow good environmental practices.
So, please, make a donation of $50 or more today. You’ll receive a copy of the 2011 CORAL calendar and help advance our mission of uniting communities to save coral reefs.
