The last round of Gitcoin funding was immensely helpful to our cause. Thanks to the funding we received we were able to complete our River Healing project in Nigeria, our Leatherback Turtle Conservation project in Puerto Rico, and our upcoming mangrove planting project in Puerto Rico. Using these funds we were able to to cover material and logistics costs (e.g. purchasing 600 mangroves, trash bags, shovels, numbered steel poles, etc).

These are the projects we were able to complete thanks to Gitcoin 19:

The challenges we face are mostly funding related. We have an endless docket of projects we would like to do but we do not have endless funding to do it. Now that we have a proper website, we will be pushing harder to get more enterprise, consumer & grant funding.
