We fund shoreline projects to protect, restore, and enhance San Francisco Bay.
Our Competitive Measure AA Grant supports large-scale shoreline restoration projects that prioritize equity and meaningful community engagement. Past grant-funded projects have included wetland restoration, improved flood management infrastructure, and the creation of migration pathways for local fish and wildlife.
Our Community Grants Program supports local involvement in large shoreline restoration projects, awarding up to $300,000 for efforts like trash cleanups, native plant restoration, and invasive species removal. The Community Grants Program provides an alternative application pathway for projects led by community-based organizations in economically disadvantaged communities.
