Coral Reef CPR was established to conserve, protect and restore the world's coral reefs through research, reef rehabilitation, education and outreach, and citizen involvement. Our aim is to create change in countries with coral reef environments. Our in-country programs involve: (i) habitat characterization, reef assessment and monitoring; (ii) reef clean-up activities and removal pest species (iii) ecological restoration; (iv) education and training of local communities, school children, resort and dive center staff and tourists; and (v) outreach and raising awareness. (vi) user group participation in conservation activities. Our goal is to enhance the capacity of local communities, tourists and various user groups so they can take ownership of their coral reefs better understand the problems facing reefs, and take simple steps to reduce the threats and enhance reef conservation. We achieve this through our education program and "citizen science" where we involve communities, students, local divers and dive operators, visitors, local marine biologists and resort staff in all our projects and initiatives. We engage various stakeholders, students and visitors in our coral reef workshops, and allow them to participate in our in-water monitoring and rehabilitation efforts. Our mission is to understand and reduce threats affecting coral reefs, promote sustainable management of reef resources and rehabilitate degraded reef ecosystems through scientific research, education, community involvement, and outreach.

MISSION The Fruit Tree Planting Foundation is a nonprofit charity dedicated to planting edible, fruitful trees and plants to benefit the environment and all its inhabitants. Our primary mission is to plant and help others plant a collective total of 18 billion fruit trees across the world (approximately 3 for every person alive) and encourage their growth under organic standards. FTPF provides support, resources, and guidance for those interested in planting fruit trees and spearheads a variety of planting programs. These programs are aimed at enriching the environment, providing nutritious food sources for wild and rescued animals, and improving human health by bringing delicious, fresh, locally grown raw fruits and vegetables of the highest quality into the lives of all people. VISION We envision a place where one can have a summer picnic under the shade of a fruit tree, breathe the clean air it generates, and not have to bring anything other than an appetite for the healthy fruits growing overhead. A world where one can take a walk in the park during a lunch break, pick and eat a variety of delicious fruits, plant the seeds so others can eventually do the same and provide an alternative to buying environmentally-destructive, illness-causing, chemically-laden products. Simply put, our goal is to encourage and inspire the planting of 18 billion fruit trees around the world. 18 billion fruit trees can spring out of the soul of one human being — we believe in thinking big, and loving even more.
