Overview
Mission
The Organization strengthens the livelihoods of communities by providing restoration efforts for coral reefs, community education programs in coral reef protection, and a variety of additional activities aimed at strengthening the local and global oceanic environment. The Organization also augments local income by building coral reef farms, which sell ornamental coral to the global coral trade market. The Organization stands behind the services that we deliver by focusing only on areas that we can make a significant contribution. We do not settle for anything less than excellence in each area of the Organization, down to admitting when we're wrong and having the courage to change.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and liabilities are high compared with assets.
