About this project
The Maldives coral reef system is one of the most biodiverse marine environments on Earth — and one of the most threatened. Rising ocean temperatures have caused widespread coral bleaching, with over 60% of local reefs impacted in the last decade.
Our team of marine biologists plants lab-grown coral fragments onto degraded reef structures. Each fragment is tracked with an embedded ID tag, allowing donors to follow the growth journey of specific corals they've funded.
Phase 1 covers 5 reef sites across North Malé Atoll. We target 10,000 coral fragments planted by December 2026, with ongoing monitoring through underwater camera networks.

Just set up my monthly recurring donation to the Maldives coral project. Even $25/month adds up — 12 fragments planted per year, tracked individually. The transparency on this platform is unlike anything I've seen. You can literally see where every dollar goes.
