REEF members are the heart of our grassroots marine conservation programs. A diverse community of divers, snorkelers, and ocean enthusiasts support our mission to conserve marine environments worldwide.
This month we highlight Nan Schmidt, a REEF member who lives in Arizona. She joined REEF in 2022, and since then she has conducted more than 100 surveys and achieved Expert Level status in the Tropical Eastern Pacific (TEP) survey region. We're so thankful to have a dedicated member like Nan!
Has it been awhile since your last survey? Or maybe you’re just curious about REEF’s Volunteer Fish Survey Project and want to know how it works?
