Winter Impact Report
What makes a community resilient? In our region, it is the those who show up in service to our people and places. At year’s end, we felt the spirit of generosity in the way you showed up to make a collective impact. Your donations, volunteer pledges, leadership, and consideration for one another is what makes this place extraordinary. As we embark upon a new year, we know that we are stronger together. This report reflects last quarter’s accomplishments, including a Forest Futures impact investment, Community Belonging training, and grantmaking and Give Back Tahoe. It also looks to what’s next.

In a time of unprecedented and growing wildfire risks, taking care of our forests is more important than ever. But what does this actually entail? In this salon, we will feature an array of speakers exploring the meaning of stewardship: from climate action to ecological protection, from community engagement to Indigenous values. Our speakers underscore the urgency of restoring Tahoe’s wooded ecosystems for reasons both local and global – and illuminate how our well-being is intimately tied to that of our forests.

Who We Are
We make projects pencil
Often, when learning about some of the toughest challenges that our community faces…housing, forest management, and sufficient support for our families, we hear the term “it doesn’t pencil.”
That is where philanthropy plays a role. By securing flexible, nimble funds from the generosity of our donors, TTCF structures new ways for solutions to become a reality. Our grantmaking and impact investing can be catalytic and regenerative when we take early stage risk or inspire other funding to the table.
TTCF has a legacy of projects that support these kinds of solutions for our community. Our Impact Portfolio works across a spectrum of solutions that focus on our people and place. Thank you for joining us in this important work.
