Join us at Stanislaus National Forest in sponsoring tribal workforce development by creating green jobs, empowering Indigenous youths, and restoring ancestral lands. We will be funding Me-Wuk conservation corps and working alongside tribal leaders with Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) to bridge modern ecological restoration with native practices to combat climate change, protect endangered habitats, and promote cultural preservation. No prior experience necessary! Donations welcomed. 100% will go toward supporting tribal corps members. (Meetup 8am at Tuolumne Marketplace, 18352 Tuolumne Rd, Tuolumne, CA 95379). (FULL)

Join us on an educational field study guided by SLO Beaver Brigade. We will be visiting beaver families, studying their habitat, and learn how to help scientists monitor the health of beaver dam complex at Salina River. This is a 2hr tour involving a 1-mile walk around a pond on sandy, rocky trails. Water shoes , old sneakers you don’t mind getting wet, or tall boots are recommended as we will be walk into the stream up to our shins.
100% of every dollar you give goes toward expanding our wetland and meadows, powering wildfire prevention and habitat restoration while fostering youth education and engagement. The benefits impact all of us at multiple levels. Be part of the solution— donate today.
