Title: Coral Restoration Foundation Donation
Post by: Wall_Tank on November 09, 2015, 11:17:05

I would like to announce that Ohio Reef has made a donation to Coral Restoration Foundation (CRF)  The CRF is a nonprofit conservation organization dedicated to creating offshore nurseries and restoration programs for threatened coral species.

Ohio Reef has been financially stable for many years, and our funding has been growing over the last number of years from the Frag Swaps that we host.    We felt it was time to give back to support the environment that allows us to have the enjoyment of coral reefs in our homes.    The donation of $5000 will help CRF continue to protect and restore reef sites.

You can read more about them at http://www.coralrestoration.org/

This is such an amazing gift and what the hobby is all about. :) Way to go Ohio Reef for making such a nice contribution to help restore the natural reefs in our own back yard.

Happy Reefing to all and thanks again to Ohio Reef for making this gift a reality.
