Hi Everyone!

My name is Caitlin, and I'm here representing the Protect Our Reefs program. Some of you may already be familiar with it (especially you Floridians)!

Protect Our Reefs is a program that raises money for coral reef research, education, and conservation through the sale of Protect Our Reefs specialty license plates.

Funds from the sale of the plate support Mote Marine Laboratory's coral reef research throughout the state of Florida. In addition to Mote's programs, the revenue also supports grants available to other Florida-based non-profit organizations for reef-specific projects designed to protect and restore reefs and educate the public about their importance in the environment. Since its inception, more than 62 projects have been funded through the Protect Our Reefs grants program adding up to more than $1.6 million in support for these projects. When matching funds are included, more than $3 million in projects have been launched.

And aside from all the wonderful projects that the plate funds, it's also the only license plate with a dive flag!

If you have any questions about the plate I'd be more than happy to answer them.

Thanks, and I look forward to getting to know everyone!

PM us a list of what you need from local dive ops... We are the home of ReefCheck and Shark Savers locally and would love to help. Let us know if you need meeting rooms, a place to hold waterfront fund raisers... You name it!
