CFVI Grantee Spotlight: St. Croix Environmental Association

Thanks to the Island Spirit Fund and Cruzan Rum, CFVI was proud to provide a $15,000 grant to the St. Croix Environmental Association to increase the number of native trees on St. Croix through planting and community tree giveaways. Planting native trees is an important aspect of hurricane recovery as it restores the natural ecosystem so it can better withstand future storms. Native trees have adapted to withstand the impacts of hurricanes, their root systems hold soil in place, and they host native pollinators which are essential to forest recovery and the production of fruits. 170 trees were given away to the community and 140 trees were planted at the Southgate Coastal Reserve and Barren Spot Bat Tower. Funding also allowed for the purchase of equipment and supplies to aid in long-term upkeep and maintenance of the planted trees. To learn more about their work, click Read More.
