Support Watershed Literacy
The Bay Institute, one of the most effective and respected conservation organizations in the region, is now able to reach more than a half million visitors a year at Aquarium of the Bay, a world-class marine nature center dedicated to San Francisco Bay.
On June 11, 2009, with major support from The David and Lucile Packard Foundation, the Richard and Rhoda Goldman Fund, and an anonymous donor, The Bay Institute, through its affiliate The Bay Institute Aquarium Foundation, purchased Aquarium of the Bay.
In June 2010, we launched our "Campaign for Watershed Literacy" to respond to the urgent need to educate and inspire young people to lifelong action to protect the estuary and its vast watershed.
The Bay Institute and Aquarium of the Bay are 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, so your contribution is tax deductible.
