We have been in operation since 1985 at our Key Largo location providing hands on marine science programs to hundreds of school groups annually, including our local schoolchildren. Like many non profits, we support ourselves through program service fees, but COVID-19 shut us down for nearly the entirety of our spring season in 2020, causing us to lose more than half of our annual budget – and we don’t know what will happen in the fall. Our campus in Key Largo is large and we have a dedicated, highly-trained staff that provide outstanding marine science education programs. In order to continue fulfilling our mission, we’ve pivoted to providing virtual and streaming programs,. Our programs are science-based and high quality, and we want our online presence to reflect the same quality as our in-person programs. In addition, providing our virtual labs keeps our hands-on programs and mission in front of the public eye, so that teachers know that we will be here next year for their marine science field program. Your donations will help make sure we’re still here! They are gratefully accepted at www.mrdf.org or via mail to MarineLab/Marine Resources Development Foundation, 51 Shoreland Drive, Key Largo, FL 33037. If you have questions please call CEO Ginette Hughes at 305-393-0722.
