Escondido, CA–The Escondido Creek Conservancy was selected to move to Phase 2 of Harrah’s Resort Southern California’s All-In 4 Change grant program.
The organization is calling on supporters across the region to help advance local conservation and outdoor education programs by casting a daily vote for the Conservancy between June 15 and June 29.
The All-In 4 Change program awards grants to nonprofit organizations making a positive impact throughout San Diego, Riverside, and Orange County. Community voting is 50% of deciding which organizations receive funding, making every vote an important opportunity to support conservation, environmental education, and habitat restoration across North San Diego County.
“We are grateful for the opportunity to participate in this community-driven program and for Harrah’s Resort Southern California’s longstanding commitment to supporting causes that strengthen our region,” said Ann Van Leer, Executive Director of The Escondido Creek Conservancy. “The All-In 4 Change program aligns closely with our mission of environmental stewardship, outdoor education, wellness, and community engagement. Through partnerships with schools, colleges, community organizations, and local tribes, including the Rincon Band of Luiseño Indians.”
For 35 years, The Escondido Creek Conservancy has protected the lands, waterways, and wildlife that define North San Diego County. Funding from the All-In 4 Change grant program would help expand conservation, habitat restoration, outdoor education, and community stewardship efforts throughout the Escondido Creek watershed.
In celebration of the Conservancy’s 35th anniversary, any grant funds awarded would be doubled through a generous $1 million matching gift challenge, amplifying the impact of every dollar invested in protecting and restoring the watershed from ridge to reef.
Organizers urge community members to vote for The Escondido Creek Conservancy each day during the voting period. Every vote increases the Conservancy’s chances of receiving funding to support land conservation, habitat restoration, environmental education, and community stewardship programs.
Supporters can follow the Escondido Creek Conservancy on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, and help spread awareness by liking, sharing, and reposting campaign updates.
