Save Mount Diablo
Laura Kindsvater's Company Details
Save Mount Diablo is a nationally accredited, non-profit land trust founded in 1971 with a mission to preserve Mount Diablo's peaks, surrounding foothills, and watersheds through land acquisition and preservation strategies designed to protect the mountain's natural beauty, biological diversity, and historic and agricultural heritage; enhance our area's quality of life; and provide recreational opportunities consistent with the protection of natural resources.In the midst of 7 million people, we are protecting and connecting Mount Diablo's open spaces for you, wildlife and future generations to enjoy. The mountain isn't just home to us, it has more rare species than just about anywhere in the country and new species are still being discovered.Since Save Mount Diablo's founding in 1971, preserved open space has increased from less than 7,000 acres to over 110,000 acres in more than 40 parks. However, Mount Diablo is still threatened by development. That could mean the loss of wildlife corridors, ecosystems and recreational opportunities. Only half of Mount Diablo's wild lands are preserved. The other half is at risk of being lost to development forever. We work to preserve, defend and restore the remaining natural lands for people and wildlife to enjoy. We depend the support of our community to help us to preserve these natural lands forever to safeguard our quality of life, including the quality of our air, water and views.
