"The benefits of growing giant clams are so holistic and so multifaceted that it not only makes me excited to begin working every morning, but it also gives me more hope for our near-term future. Aside from storing and removing carbon, the positive ecological impacts that stem from reintroducing these clams into reefs are incredibly powerful. Each clam is a mini-ecosystem of its own, which leads to better reef health and vibrancy - as well as a revitalization of coastal communities that rely on healthy reefs for their daily lives. I cannot overstate how thrilled I am to be helping spearhead these positive impacts - and I am grateful to you, and all of our supporters, who help us make this a reality. Whether you are able to donate or just share our message on your social media, we genuinely appreciate it."

“ Giant clams possess a majestic beauty and they are just so hard not to love. As an environmental scientist, my understanding of the crucial roles organisms play in the ocean makes the prospect of growing our own clams all the more meaningful. It's a way to tangibly contribute to the preservation of biodiversity, spread awareness about marine ecosystems, and drive meaningful change. I am excited by what we can potentially accomplish here at IMARCS. You can contribute to our mission by either making a donation or just by following and sharing our social media posts! “
