The natural beauty of the Bay and surroundings was a big draw for me to move to SF, and I now live a half-block from the water. The history and work of Save the Bay are a constant inspiration to me.

My introduction to Save the Bay is when they led the successful effort from paving the San Francisco Bay for expanded runways at SFO. Since then, I've supported their efforts recognizing how much they accomplish each year. Our Bay needs a NGO as focused, efficient and effective as Save the Bay.
