Grants help continue progress on Great Bay

A $100,000 grant to the Southeast Land Trust of New Hampshire is helping to protect and restore Great Bay. This investment is a continuation of the Foundation’s multiyear support of Great Bay 2020, a collaborative effort by nonprofits and the public sector to protect and restore the critical habitats of the Great Bay estuary.

Since 2011, the Foundation has made $2.6 million in grants to organizations working to protect Great Bay. These efforts are complemented by a $250,000 loan to The Nature Conservancy’s Gulf of Maine Fisheries Restoration program from the Foundation’s Impact Investment Fund.
