I'm participating in a one day fundraiser TODAY (June 24th) called Protect & Preserve. For the last few years, I've been deeply involved in the preservation of land on the Orange County coast--387 acres. This is through an organization called Coastal Corridor Alliance (formerly Banning Ranch Conservancy).
Over the last 30 months, I've spearheaded a $2M project to develop habitat, access, and climate resilience plans for the property. All of this while building up the organization from scratch with staff and infrastructure. It is the hardest project I've ever worked on--calling on many skillsets I've learned throughout my career and certainly adding new ones.
I'm hoping you can help me achieve my fundraising goal! I'm aiming for $2,500 on my fundraising page. Your donations will be matched dollar for dollar through this campaign up to $10,000. Here is a link to donate and remember it is ONLY today (June 24th) that funds can be collected.
Every little bit helps. Thanks for considering this request and yes, all donations are tax deductible.
Thanks for your ongoing support!
Dear Friends and Supporters,
Since 1998 when the fight to save Banning Ranch began, we have witnessed how protecting the lands and waters of the Coastal Corridor takes a dedicated community working together with a shared purpose.
Join us for this year’s Protect & Preserve Day on Wednesday, June 24.
CCA is proud to stand alongside seven fellow Orange County environmental nonprofits for this special day of giving dedicated to conservation, restoration, education, and public engagement across our region. Together, we are working to ensure that future generations can continue to experience and enjoy the natural beauty and biodiversity that makes local landscapes so extraordinary.
This year, our goal is to raise $20,000 in unrestricted support for CCA’s conservation and education programs. These flexible funds are especially important because they allow us to respond to emerging opportunities, expand community outreach, and continue advancing our mission where it is needed most.
Your support truly makes a difference. Every contribution helps strengthen our ability to protect the land, engage the community, and advocate for the long-term health of the Coastal Corridor.
Thank you for being part of the CCA community and for your continued commitment to conservation.
With gratitude,
The Coastal Corridor Alliance Team
