Governance

This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Some of the topics include the Atlantea Tulita: Puerto Rico's only endemic and endangered butterfly, Public Domain Goods and the Maritime/Terrestrial Zone, and Coastal biodiversity.
  3. $26,258 spent. Community Participation and Collaboration - Every year we collaborate in 5 to 10 different local coastal community initiatives coordinated by other community groups in the northwest region of the island by actively participating and supporting these events through the donation of coastal native plants or other resources, marketing or facilitating connections, offering consulting and administrative support, getting involved in community public policy and organization with the objective of increasing social cohesion in environmental protection efforts.
