Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about this donation
Quenara Foundation funds underwater nurseries where permitted divers grow coral fragments on frames for reefs hit by bleaching. Our own team runs boats and shore support in Florida and Hawaii.
Thank you for asking. Your gift buys frames and line for underwater coral nurseries. It also covers tank fills and boat fuel for the permitted dive team and the monitoring dives that follow.
Under heat stress coral expels the algae in its tissue and turns white. Bleached coral can survive but deaths climb as the heat drags on.
Only permitted restoration divers and marine biologists touch it. Our team runs the boat and shore logistics and covers the cost of materials.
Small fragments from healthy colonies hang on frames under water. Divers clean them through the season. Once they have grown they are fixed onto damaged reef.
Restoration takes years. A single gift funds one stage such as a nursery dive or a monitoring dive. It cannot stop ocean warming but it helps put living coral back.
