CWC Announces Two Grant Awards from Local Foundations!
CWC was recently awarded a grant from the Monterey Peninsula Foundation to support our summer camp, and a grant from the Community Foundation of Santa Cruz County for our stewardship and water quality monitoring work. Both grants require matching funding from individuals and businesses, and CWC is now seeking these donations.
The Monterey Peninsula Foundation (MPF) is a charitable foundation which disburses funds from the proceeds of the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am on the PGA TOUR and the First Tee Open at Pebble Beach on the Champions Tour. MPF focuses on improving the quality of life in Monterey County and surrounding areas. Since the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am came to the Monterey Peninsula in 1947, over $85 million has been raised for charity. For more info about MPF, call (831) 649-1533 or visit montereypeninsulafoundation.org.
Since 1982, the Community Foundation of Santa Cruz County has worked to make the county a better place to live, now and in the future. The Foundation helps local donors to invest wisely in causes they care about, acts as a convener around key community issues, and provides grants and other resources to local nonprofits. Funding for grants comes from several sources including charitable funds established at the Community Foundation by local donors and through partnerships with private foundations. For more information on the Foundation, visit online at www.cfscc.org or call (831) 477-0800.
See the full press release for more details, and if you’re in touch with these organizations, please express your appreciation for their investment in CWC’s efforts to preserve and protect coastal watersheds.
