Grants to this Grantee
for general operating support
This general operating grant will support the Resources Legacy Fund’s work to conserve and restore natural landscapes, rivers, open spaces, and parks in California and the Western United States.
for the Bears Ears Inter-Tribal Coalition
This grant supports the Bears Ears Inter-Tribal Coalition, for which the Resources Legacy Fund serves as fiscal sponsor. Leaders from five tribes founded the Bears Ears Inter-Tribal Coalition in 2015, representing a historic consortium of sovereign tribal nations united in the effort to conserve the Bears Ears cultural landscape.
for the San Francisco Bay Restoration program and strategic plan implementation
This grant will support the Resources Legacy Fund’s ongoing work to conserve and restore the San Francisco Bay, and implementation of the organization’s strategic plan. Beginning in 2001, RLF helped catalyze and lead a public-private partnership to acquire and restore 16,500 acres of salt ponds. Ongoing Bay work includes wildlife and wetlands restoration, new trails and recreational facilities along the Bay shoreline, and flood protection for shoreline communities.
