Reef Conservation International (ReefCI) is a dedicated organization based in Belize focused on the protection and restoration of coral reefs and marine ecosystems. They work to address key environmental challenges through research, conservation programs, and community engagement. I have a personal connection to ReefCI, where I have been involved in 2 personal trips to help restore the Belize Barrier Reef. My experience with ReefCI has allowed me to understand the struggles of our oceans and further my passion for marine conservation and sustainable practices.

I created a unique shirt design based on a personal photo I took during my time on the island, capturing the beauty of the surroundings. As a way to give back to ReefCI for all they’ve done for me, I wanted this design to not only showcase the island's beauty but add a personal touch to a place I can call home. This project allowed me to combine my love for the island with my passion for supporting environmental conservation.
