Our mission is to protect the natural and cultural resources of the Coachella Valley: the scenic, wildlife, cultural, geologic, and recreational resources that make this such a splendid place for people and all the other life forms with which we share this special place.
The grant aims to acquire open spaces for the protection of wildlife or cultural resources, enhancing the recreational and educational use of such lands. It provides funds for the acquisition of mountainous or natural community conservation lands primarily in the Coachella Valley and its surrounding mountains. In certain cases, it may also support capital improvements on existing conservation lands.
