CalWild works to ensure that the very best of California is protected forever, for locals and visitors alike, for wildlife and native plants, for all the great good nature does for us."

Rivian Foundation's grant

Rivian Foundation's support is helping CalWild to secure the designation of the proposed Chuckwalla National Monument and to assist the Fort Yuma Quechan and Pit River Tribes in advancing their national monument proposals. Additionally, this funding will support a collaborative project involving Tribes and other stakeholders to develop a compelling implementation plan for the Eel River watershed, ensuring that the future of this vital area is shaped by inclusive and well-supported conservation efforts.
