As we step into Coastside Gives early giving, we invite you to be part of something that nurtures both our land and our community.
For over two decades, our mission has been to preserve, protect, and enhance the natural, scenic, historical, and agricultural treasures of Half Moon Bay and the San Mateo County coast—for today, and for generations to come.
From restoring native habitats to connecting local youth with nearby open spaces, our work thrives because of people like you. And this year, we have a special opportunity to make your generosity go even further:
All donations will be matched up to $20,000 thanks to a generous anonymous donor!
Your gift will directly support our Community Education Initiative, which includes:
Junior Land Stewards Program – empowering students through hands-on fieldwork and science-based exploration.
Guided Walks & Raptor Tours – exploring local ecology, geology, and history.
Community Webinar Series - featuring esteemed environmentalists and educators.
Engaging community workshops and events - like the Running of the Goats and nature journaling workshops for community members and seniors.
Educational signage along our trails to inspire curiosity and learning.
Together, these programs spark a lifelong love of nature, deepen our understanding of the land, and inspire stewardship across generations.
Please consider making a gift today during early giving to help us continue this important work—and double your impact in the process.
We are deeply grateful to the Mavericks Community Foundation for this incredible opportunity to raise funds in support of our shared coastal lands—dramatic blufftop views, rolling valleys, rich wetlands, and historic open spaces that inspire, renew, and connect us. These lands are our collective legacy and speak to the future we all share.
