What is the power of philanthropy? In 2010, a group of passionate leaders came together to start an organization that would use the power of philanthropy to improve the Lake Tahoe environment. Now, ten years later, the Tahoe Fund has helped complete more than 40 environmental improvement projects working with more than 30 partners, helping to secure more than $50M in public funding along the way. Projects like the new East Shore Trail, the acquisition of Johnson Meadow, and the Take Care Tahoe stewardship program. Now that is the power of philanthropy.
