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.

Tahoe Truckee Community Foundation (TTCF) and Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA) have launched a new regional housing survey as part of an updated assessment of housing needs in the greater Lake Tahoe Region. Partners request feedback from those who live and work in the region.
Sierra forests once burned regularly. Naturally occurring and human-managed fires knocked back brush and dead trees, released seeds, and prevented catastrophic burns from destroying ecosystems. After decades of fire suppression and ecological disruption, our forests are severely overcrowded and ready for dangerous ignition.
In this salon, we will hear about prospects for returning beneficial fire to the land – and what impacts this has for forest health and community protection – from local fire and forestry professionals as well as tribal representatives revitalizing cultural burning practices.
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.
