The Water Education Foundation is the only impartial organization
educating people about water issues in California and the
Southwest.
We want to be your resource for in-depth, impartial information
on drought, water rights, environmental restoration and water
quality. Your annual contribution helps us to publish Western Water news, which examines
pressing issues in California and along the Colorado River;
continue adding terms to Aquapedia,
our online water encyclopedia; maintain our daily news update on
Aquafornia; publish new titles in
our Layperson’s Guide series and update them; develop public
television documentaries and educational videos; conduct tours of
key water sites in California and the Southwest, and organize
special events. Funds from our contributors also support our K-12
school programs, which annually reach more than 200,000 students.
As a nonprofit, we are grateful for donations of any size.
Donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
Our Giving Back Contribution Plan with multiple
levels of support kicks in with a $100 donation. You can see the
benefits of donation levels as you scroll down this page.
Our work would not be possible without your support!

You can make a tax-deductible donation in honor or memory of
someone while supporting water education in California and across
the West.
Your donation will help us carry out our mission to create a
better understanding of water resources and foster public
understanding and resolution of water resource issues through
facilitation, education and outreach.
Aquapedia and Aquafornia are your go-to resources for water
information. Help keep these vital water resources sites going by
donating now.
Aquapedia is our online water encyclopedia and Aquafornia is our
daily roundup of the most pressing news coverage on water in
California.
The Water Education Foundation’s goal is to make these
educational sites available to the public and free from
advertising. We believe in education and delivering the latest
and greatest in water, but we need your help.
Planned Giving refers to the process of making a charitable gift
of estate assets to a nonprofit organization of your choice.
Through this process, you can help to ensure that water education
continues in your name. For more information on leaving a legacy
