The second annual Reef Relief Holiday Online Auction launched on November 10th and runs through December 15, 2006, at www.reefrelief.org. "Holiday shoppers can choose from artwork, celebrity experiences, ocean adventures, getaways, and other gifts while helping save coral reefs at the same time," notes Reef Relief's Jeffrey Snipes, this year's auction manager. "So, please do your holiday shopping online at reefrelief.org. This is Reef Relief's major fundraising event of the year and will enable us to continue our work to protect our endangered coral reefs. Now, more than ever, we need your support."

The event is made possible by American Express, Blue Marlin Motel, The Citizen, Comcast, Strunk Ace Hardware, Tropical Cottages and Waterfront Market. Additional contributions are being accepted.

Reef Relief is headquartered in Key West and works year-round on environmental education programs, policy guidance and marine projects that make a difference for coral reefs.
