Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Bay ecotarium is the largest non-profit (501(c)(3)) watershed conservation group in the san francisco bay area committed to climate resilience and ocean conservation globally, inspiring actionable environmental stewardship locally, to protect and preserve biodiversity and ecosystems, from sierra to the sea.

To protect, restore, and inspire conservation of the san francisco bay and its watershed - from the sierra to the sea. San francisco's largest watershed conservation group, bay.org is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit that speaks not just for the bay, local coastal waters, delta, rivers, and wetlands, but also for the wildlife and people who call this place - the largest estuary on the west coast - their home. Bay.org is changing the relationship that people have with the bay by utilizing technology and tapping into the lifestyle of the bay area. We are changing the conversation about conservation to make it approachable, achievable, and fun. Through our five unique divisions (aquarium of the bay, the bay institute, sea lion center, ecocenter at heron's head park, bay model alliance), we motivate bay area residents and out of town visitors to become agents of change for a healthy, thriving ecosystem.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0PROGRAM #3: FIELD CONSERVATIONTHE SAN FRANCISCO BAY HAS BEEN ALTERED DRASTICALLY FROM THE PRISTINE ESTUARY THAT EXISTED IN THE 1800S. HUNDREDS OF MILES OF EARTHEN DIKES BUILT AROUND THE BAY'S SALT MARSHES SERVED THEIR CONNECTION TO ITS TIDEWATERS. THE DIKED MARSHES WERE DRAINED AND CONVERTED TO AGRICULTURAL LANDS. THEIR SIZE WAS REDUCED BY ONE THIRD. AS A RESULT OF THIS WETLAND DESTRUCTION, THE BAY'S BIOLOGICAL PRODUCTIVITY PLUMMETED. ONE OF THE MAIN GOALS OF BAY.ORG IS TO EXPAND AND ACCELERATE THE EFFORT TO PROTECT AND RESTORE MANY OF THE WETLANDS THAT WERE DRAINED. FURTHER, BAY.ORG EMPLOYS SCIENTIFIC AND POLICY EXPERTISE TO PROMOTE REFORMS IN THE WAY CALIFORNIA MANAGES ITS WATER SUPPLIES AND PROTECTS THE ECOLOGICAL VALUES OF THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY-DELTA ESTUARY AND ITS WATERSHED. IN ADDITION, TO THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AND ITS WATERSHED, BAY.ORG IS ENGAGED IN RESTORING THE RELATED COASTAL AND NEAR-SHORE OCEAN AREAS.
