Funding the Future
An endowment to support the Partners for the Conservation of the Los Osos Coastal Dunes
To foster the ongoing creation and management of the Los Osos Wildlife Corridor, a permanent fund has been created, This endowment ensures an ongoing, protected stream of income to help protect, preserve, and restore this rare and valuable ecosystem by supporting coordination between public and private land owners and providing outreach and education in the local community. In particular, the endowment funds creative conservation projects by young people in the area.
The endowment was gifted from a local property owner who sold their land to the California Department of Fish & Wildlife to become the Morro Dunes Ecological Preserve. The endowment is held by the Community Foundation San Luis Obispo and supervised by the County of San Luis Obispo.
(Your donation will be made to the Community Foundation San Luis Obispo. Please earmark it for the Partners for the Conservation of the Los Osos Coastal Dunes. A more specific donation link will be added soon.)
