Foundation presents kayak to lucky new member

The Gulf of Mexico Foundation (GMF) presented a kayak to the winner of its membership promotion that ended January 30. The lucky winner was Ray Allen, Executive Director of the Coastal Bend Bays and Estuaries Program (CBBEP) in Corpus Christi. Allen was one of the first to sign up for GMF's Individual Membership Program.
During the event, GMF President/CEO Dr. Quenton Dokken presented the kayak and said a few words on behalf of the Foundation. Allen donated the kayak to CBBEP for the program's researchers to use for their marsh restoration project at the Nueces Bay Causeway.
Eighty-five percent of all Foundation funding contributes directly to the restoration, conservation and education of the Gulf of Mexico region. Join our effort to conserve coastal wetlands, restore habitats, protect diverse sea life, educate our teachers and students, and ensure the Gulf remains healthy and productive for our grandchildren.
