It’s workplace giving season, the time of year when anyone in the workplace can show their support for the organizations and causes they love.

The Water Education Foundation is now part of federal, state and private programs allowing donations through payroll deductions.

Like many nonprofits, the Foundation is “mission-driven but revenue-dependent.” We need your continued support, especially in a challenging year like 2020, to keep programs like Project WET going!

Since 1977, the Water Education Foundation has been a trusted source of water news and programming, putting water resource issues in California and the West into context to inspire a deep understanding of and appreciation for water. The Foundation is the California coordinator of Project WET teacher training program and organizes workshops for K-12 educators across the state. 

Gifts via payroll deductions at your workplace are a convenient and time-honored way to offer support and meaningful contributions.

The Foundation is now an option in these workplace giving programs:

• The Combined Federal Campaign, for federal agencies such as the Bureau of Reclamation, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the U.S. Geological Survey
• Our Promise Campaign for California state employees, for agencies such as the California Department of Water Resources, State Water Resources Control Board and California Department of Fish and Wildlife
• United Way for all other local campaigns and private companies

If your school district or organization is not part of these campaigns, you can check with your human resources department to see if they have their own campaign. If so, you can write in Water Education Foundation to direct your contribution to us. Our tax ID is 94-2419885. For questions, contact Patrick Dunlap at pdunlap@watereducation.org.
