Funding has come from local donors, including Keys Ahead Inc. As they pursue out- side funding, most of those sources require a local cash match so they will need ongoing and new local support. Dave’s main partners are David Makepeace, the former marine biology teacher at Coral Shores High School, and Loretta Lawrence, the program coor- dinator for RECON. Their organization (SEA Inc.) manages the RECON pro- gram. REEF and the Coral Restoration Foundation are also part of the curricu- lum.
