At the end of 2012, Sustainable Conservation launched the Making Big Ideas Work Campaign to double fundraising and spending during a five-year period in order to pilot new approaches and implement lasting solutions to the toughest challenges facing California’s air, land, and water. In 2012 and 2013, this campaign was the main factor driving the increase in net assets.
Beginning in 2014, Sustainable Conservation has been supporting new program initiatives using assets accumulated during the Making Big Ideas Work Campaign. As a result, the change in net assets has decreased. Sustainable Conservation’s management projects that this trend of decreasing net assets will continue through 2017 as the Making Big Ideas Work Campaign funds are spent as planned. Management and the Board of Directors are committed to ensuring that Sustainable Conservation remains financially healthy during this period.

Sustainable Conservation helps California thrive by uniting people to solve the toughest challenges facing our land, air, and water.
Every day we bring together business, landowners, and government to steward the resources on which we all depend in ways that make economic sense. Because we know that common ground is California’s most important resource.
