🌲 This #GivingTuesday, Executive Director, Charles Schrammel shares why contributing helps to support Bucks Lake Wilderness recovery: “We have witnessed the devastation of fire on the landscape, we have also been privileged to see the incredible resilience of this region; new growth emerging from the ash, sprouts from seemingly destroyed trees, and people dedicated to the health of the communities we inhabit. Friends of Plumas Wilderness is dedicated to supporting resilience and facilitating recovery. With your support we will continue developing a science-based recovery plan for the Bucks Lake Wilderness so that generations to come will be able to enjoy the beauty of our natural ecosystems!”

🌱Help us meet our year end goal of $10,000 for BLW restoration planning; we’re at 42% and today donations will be matched dollar for dollar up to $3,500! Donate today! (🔗 in bio)

It’s here… it’s #GivingTuesday and we’re excited to participate in this day of international giving. Help us start the day strong by making a donation (🔗 in bio) and clicking the share button!

In the next 24 hours, we’re hoping to raise $10,000 to help fund restoration planning efforts in the Bucks Lake Wilderness! Formed in 1974, Friends of Plumas Wilderness founders were key in the designation of the BLW passed by Congress in 1984. In 2021, the BLW was heavily impacted by the Dixie Fire and for our 50th anniversary, we’re rolling up our sleeves to help with its recovery.

Help us today by donating and spreading the word!

In late 2022, we increased our capacity to meet the growing needs of our region, adding three new staff members to our team! Meet our Executive Director, Charles Schrammel, and learn a little bit more about the role Friends of Plumas Wilderness plays in the region and why he’s involved:

“For me what is at stake is, everything. This place represents one of the most biodiverse regions in California and in the United States, and when we lose that biodiversity we lose the integrity; we lose the clean water, we lose the animals, we lose the trees and we’re not left with much else. I’m involved with Friends of Plumas Wilderness because I see an opportunity to have an impact on the communities that we live in and the landscape that we live on.”

This year, we’ve been fortunate enough to welcome two new wonderful board members. Organizations like ours can’t function without the help of a dedicated and engaged group of volunteer Board members and we’re so lucky to have the insight and perspectives of our varied Board members.

Join us in welcoming Esa Morrison, born and raised in Plumas County, and learn a little bit more about her and her passion for protecting the watershed: “We all play in it in a different way and connect to it in a different way. If we can protect what we have right now and learn from our mistakes, we can protect this landscape, this watershed that I know we love for various different reasons.”

We’re so grateful to have Esa’s vision on Board!
