We now have an opportunity to conserve the land in perpetuity.
Our funding goal is signficant. Can you help?
Conserving the site will protect crucial wildlife habitat linkages in the Verdugos, center tribal-led stewardship and the reintegration of indigenous knowledge to the land, and allow for future environmental care, restoration, and enhanced public access. It will protect river tributaries and streams in the Los Angeles Watershed, improving tributary greenways and protecting vulnerable water sources. It will safeguard our openspace for generations to come.
