WISH LIST WISH LIST

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING CRCL

The Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana was the first nonprofit to take on coastal restoration statewide — and for 38 years, we’ve made big progress. That success wouldn’t be possible without our incredible volunteers, partners and funders. But there’s one more essential element: supplies and equipment. From holding community meetings to planting trees and grasses and recycling oyster shells, the hands-on nature of our work takes a serious toolkit. So does organizing volunteers and transporting gear from one end of the coast to the other. Rakes, megaphones, tables, buckets — we use them all, and we use them hard.

That’s a good thing—it means we’re getting real work done. But it also means tools wear out and need replacing. That’s where you come in.

We’ve put together a wish list of the gear we need for upcoming restoration projects, volunteer efforts, meetings and fundraising events. Every item helps us continue rebuilding Louisiana’s coast —one tool, one shell, one tree at a time.
