To open the gate to this diverse array of public programs, Friends must raise $250,000. This show of community support will help unlock $6 million from Midpen for infrastructure improvements.

TIME IS RUNNING OUT —
We need YOUR to help to Reopen Bear Creek Stables!
Thanks to generous supporters like you, we’ve raised $161,000 of the $250,000 needed to secure a 12-year partnership with the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District. We need to raise an additional $89,000 in the next three weeks to cross the finish line.
Your gift — no matter the amount — will make a real difference, so please:
- Make a personal donation today
- Request a corporate match through your employer
- Ask friends, family, and neighbors who share your passion for outdoor learning to do the same
Help us begin offering transformative programs
With your support, and an additional $6 million to be invested by Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District over the next five years, we’ll begin offering transformative programs in our first year, including:
- Youth Science Initiatives
- Senior Field Trips
- Outdoor Classes for Bay Area Schools
- Creative Spaces for Writers, Artists, and Photographers
- Equine Therapy for Veterans and Cancer Survivors
Your donation today will provide access to nature-based learning for everyone — regardless of age, ability, or background!
