Water Foundation

This general operating support grant to the Water Foundation will support its work to ensure water policy in California and the West balances the needs of communities and the environment.

The Water Foundation is working to fundamentally transform water management to protect clean drinking water, restore crucial ecosystems, ensure sustainable groundwater, achieve water sharing agreements, and strengthen water efficiency and conservation standards. This general operating grant will support the Water Foundation’s work in California and across the West.

This grant to the Water Foundation will support its work to ensure water policy in California balances the needs of farmers, urban dwellers, and the environment. The Water Foundation seeks to modernize state water policy to better respond to a less predictable water future caused by climate change and the growing demands put on the state’s water supplies. To achieve its goals, the Water Foundation will analyze water policy options and educate policymakers, the public, and the press.
