Join the Mission

I.CARE is a nonprofit coral reef restoration organization based in Islamorada, Florida, dedicated to restoring, protecting, and sustaining the coral reef ecosystems of the Florida Keys. Through science-based conservation initiatives and community-driven restoration programs, I.CARE works to strengthen reef resilience and support the long-term health of South Florida’s marine environment.

Why It Matters

Coral reefs are the foundation of the Florida Keys marine ecosystem, providing critical habitat for thousands of marine species, supporting local fisheries, protecting shorelines from storm damage, and driving the region’s tourism economy. However, these reefs face significant threats from climate change, disease, pollution, and environmental stress.

I.CARE plays a vital role in addressing these challenges through hands-on coral reef restoration, community education, and conservation initiatives. By growing, planting, and monitoring corals, I.CARE helps rebuild reef ecosystems, increase reef resilience, and promote long-term ocean health. Their work not only benefits marine life but also helps preserve the natural resources and economic vitality that make the Florida Keys a world-renowned destination.
