We need your support to grow our newest CIR programs.
Help us protect land from wildfires and offer volunteer trips to San Clemente Island!
CIR is working to expand its capacity next year by providing more educational opportunities for communities of color, establishing native plant gardens in collaboration with local Chumash groups, protecting local land from wildfires, and offering volunteer trips to San Clemente Island.
However, to accomplish those goals CIR needs help to finish out this year on a sound financial footing. You can help us reach our year-end goal of raising $75,000 by December 31st to directly support these programs. If every one of our supporters gave $100, then we can reach our goal and ease CIR’s fiscal burden.
However, we know not everyone can give that amount, and of course whatever you can give is appreciated. To offset those who can’t give at that level, we always appreciate a larger donation if that is within your means. Of course, all donations are tax-deductible and your giving level will correlate to CIR's tiered membership program.
