Mission Statement
REEF conserves marine environments worldwide. Our mission is to protect biodiversity and ocean life by actively engaging and inspiring the public through citizen science, education, and partnerships with the scientific community.
About This Cause
REEF was founded in 1990 because of a growing concern about the health of the marine environment, and the desire to provide the public ways to contribute to the understanding and protection of marine populations. REEF protects biodiversity and ocean life by actively engaging and inspiring the public through citizen science, education, and partnerships with the scientific community. The REEF Volunteer Fish Survey Project has generated the largest and longest-running marine life sightings database in the world, and these data are used to better manage, understand, and protect ocean ecosystems. REEF's extensive Explorers Education programs serve the young to the young at heart, through summer camps, day programs, internships, and online learning. REEF’s strategic partnerships with government agencies, scientific and academic institutions, the non-profit sector, the dive industry, and local communities amplify the efforts of individual volunteers, allowing them to make significant contributions to ongoing conservation projects. REEF has global impact, with programs world-wide, as well as local impact through its REEF Campus in the Florida Keys, where it serves the local community and visitors to the Florida Keys by providing educational programming for all ages on fish identification, invasive species prevention, endangered species, and conservation awareness.
