The Foundation
A Unique Organization
Founded in 1989, the Laguna Foundation is a place-based organization focused on the Laguna de Santa Rosa, a Wetland of International Importance. We are a 501(c)3 non-profit with the mission of preserving, protecting, restoring and educating the public about this magnificent natural resource.
We accomplish this mission by:
- Removing non-native invasive species and planting tens of thousands of trees and other native plants to restore lost habitat.
- Conducting conservation science activities to provide information for endangered species management and to inform our restoration activities.
- Educating students and adults about the Laguna ecosystem.
- Collaborating with other non-profits on county wide issues such as helping ecosystems adapt to climate change.
The Foundation has a small staff and we rely on the support of the community to help us achieve these goals. Please consider volunteering, becoming a member, or donating to the Foundation; pulling together as a community of nature lovers, we can make a difference!
