CBRAC Land Sponsorhip

How Sponsorship Works

Land sponsorship gives you the opportunity to sponsor a specific area of land for protection. Many would like to protect land and be a part of a shared special future, but cannot afford to buy a whole parcel alone. By sharing the patronage, we can achieve this together. Crowdfunded sponsorship makes it possible to fund and create protected nature parks by the community, for the community.

To help make this happen, CBRAC temporarily secures the land to allow time to raise the funds necessary to protect it in perpetuity. 

As a patron, the pieces you sponsor can be named after you, a donor company or in honour of a loved one. Protecting a piece of land in someone else's name makes a wonderful gift. This creates a mosaic on the map representing the generous contributions of our community, who will forever be a part of the park.

OUR SECOND NATURE PARK

CBRAC’s second park is ready for sponsorship! This beautiful base-of-bluff land is home to a diverse forest with some special residents. A critically endangered Sister Isles Rock Iguana is regularly spotted here. Iconic endemic and endagered species such as agave, silver thatch palm, and pepper cinammon are abundant and two very important endemic cacti are also growing here - Consolea millspaughii caymanensis & Harrisia caymanensis. This is a critical habitat for countless native species - it is so important to protect it for future generations.

OUR FIRST NATURE PARK - FULLY SPONSORED!

CBRAC’s inaugural nature park protects an important bluff-side parcel on the south east of Cayman Brac. This site is a perfect location due to its natural and recreational features, including a beautiful section of bluff with colourful streaked walls overlooking a native forest of sea grapes, red birch, and sprawling wild figs. 

The forest is a prime habitat for endangered rock iguanas and the bluff face has potential tropicbird nesting sites. A recent informal bat survey revealed two colonies with over 140 bats.

This area has high recreational interest with potential for a number of low-impact, high-quality sport-climbing routes on unique rock unlike anywhere else in the Brac. Access trails for the forest and bluff can be easily created without damaging sensitive flora.

Near the bluff are several Pepper Cinnamon trees – a critically endangered plant in the Cayman Islands that is rare on the southern coast of the Brac. Pepper Cinnamon fruits attract many birds and the shrub has many uses in traditional medicine.
