Make a difference by planting a mangrove Seatree in Laguna San Ignacio, Baja, Mexico!
Your contribution supports the restoration of 25 acres of vital mangrove habitat through the planting of 100,000 mangrove trees in the El Dátil region. In partnership with WILDCOAST and the local community, this project is led by the remarkable women of Mujeres de El Dátil, and creates living-wage employment, provides training opportunities, and empowers gender equity. Trained in mangrove restoration techniques, the Mujeres de El Dátil plays a critical role in seedling collection, planting, monitoring, and maintaining restored sites.
Every mangrove you help to plant:
- Provides living-wage employment to the local community.
- Improves the livelihoods of 250+ inhabitants of El Dátil.
- Trains 11+ women in project management and monitoring.
- Protects local areas and communities from sea-level rise and increased storm surges.
- Safeguards critical gray whale nursery habitat.
