Save the Redwoods League awarded 34 grants in 2011 to nonprofit organizations to foster a deeper understanding of redwood forests through personal visits and educational experiences among diverse groups of adults and children.
Since 2000, we have awarded more than 300 grants to dedicated educators who provide high-quality redwood forest education both in and out of the classroom.
More than 170 Save the Redwoods League members enjoyed a cookout, music, kids’activities and guidedhikes on our July 16 Member Appreciation Day at Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park.
With our members’ generous support, Save the Redwoods League achieved many successes in 2011, including purchase of the ancient Noyo River Redwoods and one of the last pieces of privately held land in Redwood National Park. You are at the heart of that success.
