Help bring Costa Rica’s coral reefs back to life by planting a coral fragment in Golfo Dulce - one of the world’s only four tropical fjords and a critical biodiversity hotspot.
In partnership with Raising Coral, your support helps restore degraded reefs using science-backed methods while creating economic opportunities for local communities who depend on healthy oceans.
Each coral you plant helps:
- Rebuild vital reef habitat for marine life like sea turtles, dolphins, and reef fish
- Directly fund the planting and care of coral fragments using microfragmentation techniques
- Provide fair wages, dive certifications, and training in reef restoration for local coral gardeners and youth
- Improve water quality through community partnerships and sustainable land-use practices
- Strengthen reef resilience through ongoing monitoring, water testing, and 3D reef mapping for impact measurement
- Adapt to climate change by selecting thermally tolerant coral for breeding, contributing to resilient reef structures that will protect vulnerable low-laying coastal communities.
