Tahoe City, CA…Thanks to the incredible generosity of our Founders Circle donors, the Tahoe Fund successfully reached and exceeded its $1,000,000 goal for its first major donor campaign. Donors who pledged and/or donated at least $5,000 will forever be recognized for their efforts to build the foundation of the Tahoe Fund as it grows into a major source of funding for environmental projects

Our Founders

“We decided to become Founder’s Circle members because we believe in preserving and protecting the unique beauty of the entire Lake Tahoe Basin, while also facilitating responsible developments that allow residents and visitors to get the most out their Tahoe experiences. We also strongly support the need for individuals, businesses and government agencies to collaborate on priority initiatives to protect and improve this very special gem that we all love, so that future generations can enjoy it as much as we have. Individually, none of us has the power to accomplish this, but collectively, we can…and must!”- Woody & Denise Shackleton, Platinum Founders Circle Donors

Thank you to our Founders Circle Members whose combined contributions and multi-year pledges helped us to reach and exceed our million dollar goal!
