2019 DONORS

Sustainable Conservation extends our gratitude to the following individuals and institutions who contributed generously between January – December 2019.

Dan Dooley

“My father farmed his entire life, so I’m a San Joaquin Valley farmer at heart. Our family values have always been rooted in natural systems and I’m so invested in both Sustainable Conservation’s approach and work because this provides hope that my grandkids and their grandkids will be able to enjoy California’s unrivaled natural spaces just as I did. It’s never felt more important to support Sustainable Conservation’s work than it feels today.”

Dan Dooley Board Chair, long-time donor, Sacramento, CA
