We have much to celebrate after an extraordinary 2021, a year in which our community banded together to save the West Mesa of the San Marcos Foothills from development. The campaign’s success means that Channel Islands Restoration is now responsible for restoring the habitat of rare birds and native plants on the West Mesa. Additionally, the campaign ensures the land is available to the public forever. We take this work seriously, as we know the cultural and historical significance this land holds for our indigenous neighbors and those who recreate in the area.

CIR continues to protect and restore natural habitats across California. We educate the public about these lands and the Channel Islands so that people can enjoy them for generations. We have big plans and ideas for furthering our mission in 2022 and beyond, but these plans and dreams can only come to fruition with your support.

We are thrilled to share our plans with you throughout December, and we invite you to partner with us as our work continues. Keep an eye on our social media accounts and check your inboxes for more information coming soon. Thank you for your past support. With your ongoing support, we’re looking forward to building a very robust future.
