Yes! I’m pleased to sustain the Committee’s good work to protect and restore Mono Lake with a year-end gift.

The 2024 Mono Lake Committee staff.

Long Live Mono Lake

Your support is already helping us make real progress on several fronts. Here are some of the good signs we’re seeing:

  • Mono Lake held on to, and continues to benefit from, last year’s five-foot rise.
  • We pushed Los Angeles to not increase diversions this year—and the mayor agreed!
  • The State Water Board took a big step to prepare for its hearing on Mono Lake.

Your year-end gift will help the Mono Lake Committee keep the good news coming for Mono Lake. We’ll work with the State Water Board and Los Angeles to ensure that a new path is forged—one that gives Mono Lake a better chance to rise to a healthy level. There is so much on the line, and your year-end gift makes it all happen! Thank you.
