Help Fund the Reef That Helps Our Oceans

This project is part of a larger mission by ORAI to protect and restore marine ecosystems through reef innovation, education, and community involvement.

But they need your help.

Due to sudden cuts in funding to deploy the artificial reef in Hollywood, FL, ORAI is raising funds to make up for the losses. Every donation helps build habitat, protect biodiversity, and offer public access to transformative ocean experiences.

Support the reef with a donation here.

Your contribution today primarily funds the current deficit to finish payment on this reef deployment. 

Additional funding for ORAI supports future:

Reef construction and maintenance
Educational and community engagement programs
Coral outplanting with Coral Lok

Why Coral Lok Makes This Special

At Live Blue events, you’ll be introduced to Coral Lok, an innovative coral outplanting method developed by ReefCells. Unlike traditional planting techniques, Coral Lok stabilizes coral fragments on reef structures with unmatched strength—giving them a much greater chance to survive and thrive.

This hands-on experience connects you to the ecosystem in a way that’s impactful, educational, and fun.
