New certification card for 2009



Dear Member

Project AWARE Foundation’s newest certification card choice is here! Show your support and download a larger than life size c-card and the latest card choices flyer to spread the word. Help your students make the only card choice that contributes to underwater conservation.

With £5 or more donated to conservation, above the standard card fee, divers and members can receive the Project AWARE version of their PADI certification or replacement card.

Your Participation Matters:
More than 50 percent of Project AWARE’s income is a direct result of PADI Member action. What can you do?

1) Show your support for conservation and obtain the Project AWARE version of your membership card. Challenge your students to choose the Project AWARE card and show their support. Printing copies of the c-card flyer helps demonstrate the Project AWARE c-card choices available.

2) Build support into every course by including the £5 minimum donation into the course price. Be sure to let divers know this donation supports protection for underwater environments and challenge them to match it. A donation of £25 or more will even qualify them as a Project AWARE Patron for one year which includes special benefits.

C-card Donations Directly Support:

Underwater and shoreline cleanups and marine debris prevention
Coral reef monitoring and conservation
Shark protection, research and education
Improved resource management
Environmental education for divers and children
This year marks the 10th Anniversary of Project AWARE’s establishment as a charity in the UK. Please help us celebrate by encouraging your student to choose this year’s limited edition card.

We depend on your support. Thank you for your help and ongoing dedication to the underwater environment.

Sincerely,

Suzanne Pleydell
