Sustainable farming initiatives also protected the petrel from habitat loss, while supporting Haitians in creating sustainable communities. The project worked with over 400 families and more than 2,500 people on a range of conservation initiatives including soil and water conservation, increasing crop yield through plant selection and composting, reforestation through a tree nursery and replanting program, and youth education for thousands of children who are likely to be future farmers. Two expeditions to Guadeloupe and Dominica sought to find additional nesting locations for this rare and secretive seabird, whose population is less than 1,000 nesting pairs. EPIC is also working globally to bring this bird back from the brink of extinction through participation on the International Black-capped Petrel working group and through the use of social media and feature films. 85000 0 0 The Grenadines Seabird Program is protecting and raising awareness in St. Vincent and the Grenadines and Grenada about the highly significant seabird breeding populations covering a total of 74 sites including three sites of global significance and 18 that are significant in the Caribbean. Since seabirds are experiencing a 70% decline worldwide, this program focuses on research, monitoring, education and conservation planning. A total of 70 people are currently trained as members of the Grenadines Seabird Guardines who gather data and patrol these remote islands. Education programs reached more than 3,000 people including students, the public, and government officials. A first-ever Seabird Conservation Plan was drafted with input from diverse stakeholders and will provide a roadmap for protecting these imperiled seabirds and their nesting sites from impacts such as poaching, plastic pollution, and introduced predators. 159600 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 4 0 true 1 true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 9 9 true false false false false false false true true false true true true true true true true true false false false X Tabitha Stadler 2396823518 411 Walnut St 6749 Green Cove Springs FL 32043 X Adam Brown Chairman 20.00 X 0 0 0 Marc Grunberg Vice Chairman 0.50 X 0 0 0 Natalia Collier Director 20.00 X 0 0 0 Boris Fabres Director 0.50 X 0 0 0 Helen Gratil Director 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mark Sikkel Director 0.00 X 0 0 0 Amlak Tafari Director 0.50 X 0 0 0 William Mackin Treasurer 0.50 X 0 0 0 Paul Sikkel Secretary 0.50 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 50001 213284 263285 117 0 117 263402 0 0 117 70116 0 42070 28046 2942 2942 0 0 7240 0 4344 2896 1470 0 1470 0 120711 118211 2350 150 4451 2390 288 1773 2388 112 2276 0 29000 24853 1137 3010 314 95 219 0 1645 0 1645 0 Bank & Merchant Fees 374 0 374 0 Dues & Subscriptions 1064 0 289 775 Phone 1222 0 1222 0 Postage/Delivery 1446 963 347 136 12774 10034 2111 629 257157 159600 60142 37415 124384 301055 182869 301055 307253 6560 828 9534 200 200 6760 10562 X 294295 296691 294295 296691 301055 307253 6245 -3849 X false false false X 0 166549 117949 165485 209130 272819 931932 0 0 166549 117949 165485 209130 272819 931932 0 931932 29 35 54 117 235 0 0 932167 0.99970 0.99980 X 0 0 0 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Damage Deposit 200 200 Central America 0 12 Program Services Caribbean region conservation 159600 0 12 0 12 159600 159600 false false false false false false Pt VI, Line 19 Documents available upon request.
