More on Green Initiative
As part of our Green Initiative, A $10,000 donation went to the Buzzards Bay Coalition. The $1,500 donation for Torpedo was pooled with the $8,500 donation for Westport. The organization was recommended by local advisors for its great track record in conservation, research, education, and advocacy. This donation supported the Snell Creek Conservation Project located in Westport MA. The project seeks to permanently protect 31 acres of land that contain critical wildlife habitat. Through its education component, the project also benefits nearby communities in Acushnet where the Torpedo project is located.
