Water is one of California’s most important resources. And since 1977 the Water Education Foundation has been helping policymakers, teachers, journalists and the public gain a better understanding of water in California – and the challenges the state confronts as people weigh how water should be used, especially in times of scarcity.

On Giving Tuesday, please consider supporting this important work. We are independent and nonpartisan. We strive hard to educate and explain, through tours of important water resources, informational briefings and workshops, in-depth reporting on emerging water issues, training for school teachers and future water leaders, and our acclaimed Layperson’s Guides and map posters. As a nonprofit, we depend on donations to help us continue this work.
