Miami Dade County's Artificial Reef Program is funded through a variety of ways:
The most important contributions to the Artificial Reef Program are those from individuals, corporations, agencies, and foundations that value the protection and enhancement of South Florida marine and estuarine habitats. All contributions are tax deductible, and can be monetary or donations of appropriate artificial reef materials including limerock boulders, pre-cast concrete to steel vessels (wood, plastic, rubber and fiberglass materials are not accepted). The program is primarily sustained through these charities and volunteer efforts from the public, allowing for our precious reefs to be maintained and our marine environment enhanced.
If you love to dive or fish in South Florida, or just want to contribute to a cause that directly benefits the marine environment in your own back yard, here's your chance. You can send your monetary contribution to the address listed below, or if you have material you would like to donate, send us an e-mail and we will contact you to discuss possible utilization of your items.
You can send your tax-deductible monetary donation to:
