HelpFreely is an online shopping platform which donates a percentage of their income to charities. The price of a product is the same as in other shops. To make it easier for you, an app is available that redirects you from HelpFreely to the eBay page you’re looking for. If you then purchase your desired product, for example an travel guide to Thailand, HelpFreely immediately makes a donation to the charity of your choice.

You can choose your own charities. The app will remember them and you don’t even have to think about whether you want to support a charity or not. Currently hundreds of online shops already participate in HelpFreely. E.g. Greetz, Groupon, eBay etc. Check the website to see which shops do the right thing. Or even better, subscribe as a Hero through this link, and support CoralGardening. Feel free tot share HelpFreely with other online shoppers to get the flow going!If anybody ever tells you you spend to much on online shopping, you now have the best excuse you can think of: “I’m not shopping, I’m supporting my favourite charity, CoralGardening!” Thanks to all Heroes for installing this App

The post Donate freely? Yes, you can! appeared first on CoralGardening.

Because our crowdfunding campaign is a success already, we will start the construction of the first CoralGarden in April. Now it is up to you to decide how large the CoralGarden will get. If we can reach €15.000,-, a total of ten flowers and two pairs of hands will be built initially. If we can reach our target of €25.000,-, the complete CoralGarden as you can experience in the video above will be realised.

Your contribution will directly increase the size of the CoralGarden and the size of the coral reef. We guarantee that your full donation is spent on local materials and services that are necessary to construct the CoralGarden. Visit OnePlanetCrowd and immortalize your name on a reef statue!

We thank everyone who made a contribution to this next step in our success! Send this update to your friends and spur them to become part of the change that will make coral reefs and marine life in general excel! An additional 6 flowers and a pair of hands will be made when we reach our next target of €15.000. That way we can optimize our effects on the new reef even more and we can provide divers with additional challenges and fun before they face the natural reefs!

Join us build a healthy ocean!

The  musical BosBouwBand blew everyones mind with their incredible performance. We held an auction during the break, in which we offered many useful but also playful itmes. Among the items were study materials, a framed butterfly, a dinner voucher, a workshop handling snakes and even a personal concert by the BosBouwBand!

Students had set a target of raising €500,- for CoralGardening during their planning and organization. During the night their hopes rose to even more, €800,-. But in the end in turned out we reached €1.600!!!

It was a very successful and fun night. Sylvatica and all volunteers, we thank youyou’re your support, trust and passion in/for CoralGardening!

During a talk with Diego from The Old Pirate, we developed the idea to place donation boxes for CoralGardening in dive shops. This way, people that want the best for coral reefs can immediately make a difference by donating a little bit of money. The box is a happy shark. Diego Li voluntarily takes care of releasing our sharks and bringing in the treasure (donations). Our gratitude for that!

If all goes well in nature, the sharks will disperse by themselves. They can be found in more and more shops and restaurants.

If you see one of these shark somewhere, please feed him, for a healthy reef!

Many thanks from the CoralGardening team.
