Shoreline Preserve Fundraiser
Our Mission
Building on a long history of environmental stewardship, Hollister Ranch owners voted overwhelmingly in December 2022 to expand HR’s Shoreline Preserve to include the entire HR shoreline area, giving us new opportunities to protect the wild, natural coast we all love. Since then we have successfully conducted baseline studies documenting wildlife, analyzing snowy plover populations, mapping sensitive habitat and accounting for human activity impact. To continue this critical work and avoid further assessments, we need your help.
Why Give?
Your support directly funds HR’s critical studies and ensures the preservation of these coastal ecosystems. Every contribution you make supports our research, equipment and conservation efforts and helps fund a new fellowship position. This is our legacy, to protect the HR Shoreline Preserve for future generations.
