The Good 

1,740+ genetically diverse, resilient, and rare parent coral  animals have been planted by Counting Coral  across 4 custom-built Gene Banks in Fiji - and the number continues to grow.

Looking ahead, all Gene Banks systems combined could produce and plant up to 35,000+ coral fragments over the next five years.

Counting Coral has established, and is currently developing, 3 Marine Protected Areas in Fiji. Alongside this, the organization is pushing for environmental policy reforms while creating more local jobs and expanding education opportunities.

50%

Global Coral Loss

The Bad

50% of the world’s coral reefs have already been lost. By 2050, over 90% of coral reefs are projected to die due to climate change if current trends continue.

25%

Marine Life Collapse

Coral reefs cover less than 1% of the ocean floor, yet they support a staggering 25% of all marine life. Over 500 million people worldwide rely on coral reefs for food, income, and coastal protection.

75%

Reefs at Risk

An estimated 75% of coral reefs are currently threatened by local and global stressors. Coral reefs can take decades or even centuries to recover—if they recover at all—from severe bleaching events.

We Need Your Help

As an entirely volunteer-based, donation-driven nonprofit, every dollar you give goes straight to the reef. Your support covers everything from materials and shipping to the building, installation, and care of our coral nurseries and Gene Banks. When you give, you’re not just funding a project - you’re helping rebuild entire reef ecosystems. 

Join us for Phase 2

Make Real Impact & Plant the Future

Each Gene Bank is supported by coral nurseries so
that the parent animal can be propagated and be
out-planted. We are now in urgent need of funding two more coral nurseries to complete all three Gene Banks. We’re actively fundraising to get these nurseries built, and we really need your help to make it happen.
