Every purchase of the brand’s still and sparkling water will help improve the Tahoe environment for all to enjoy

Those who love Tahoe now have a refreshing way to give back to the environment. Starting this spring, Tahoe Artesian Water is donating $1 from every case of still or sparkling water sold through the Tahoe Fund’s $1 for Tahoe program. 

“We love partnering with local companies that are passionate about the Tahoe environment,” said Amy Berry, Tahoe Fund CEO. “With plastic bottle bans taking effect in the Tahoe region, now is the perfect time to choose glass bottles or cans from Tahoe Artesian whenever you can’t get Tahoe tap!” 

Tahoe Artesian Water is high quality, naturally alkaline and sustainable. Sourced from a family owned artesian well in the Sierra Nevada mountains, Tahoe Artesian Water spends decades being naturally filtered through the earthen layers of the mountains. It is bottled to order in Eco Glass high in the Tahoe National Forest. 

“Our mission is to rebuild a connection between people and the source of their water, and to share our sacred resource,” said Cory Daiker and Simona Celante, co-founders of Tahoe Artesian Water. “Sustainability and stewardship are fundamental to our practices, so partnering with the Tahoe Fund to give back to the environment and community where we operate is a natural fit for us.”

Started to harness the passion of visitors and residents to help care for Tahoe’s extraordinary environment, participating businesses in the $1 for Tahoe program collect dollars from their guests through their purchases of lift tickets, hotel accommodations, food and drink, and other items. 

Donations collected through the $1 for Tahoe program contribute to the Tahoe Fund’s efforts to improve the Lake Tahoe environment, including supporting hiking and biking trails, watershed restoration projects, environmental stewardship programs, open spaces for wildlife habitat and scenic views, and much more.

For the entire month of February, Alpenglow Gallery’s owners Douglas DeVore and Justin Majeczky will donate 100% of their profits to the Tahoe Fund. The fine art gallery, located in downtown Truckee, features stunning mountain and lake landscape prints of the Tahoe-Truckee area and beyond.

“The Tahoe Fund has worked with Justin and Doug on a number of projects over the years, and we are thrilled they want to support the work we’ve been doing to improve the Tahoe environment for all to enjoy in this way,” said Amy Berry, Tahoe Fund CEO. “By purchasing one of Justin or Doug’s prints from Alpenglow Gallery this February, people will not only have a beautiful reminder of this special place, they’ll be giving back to Tahoe in a meaningful way.”

Alpenglow Gallery’s prints are available in various sizes and shipped ready-to-hang on canvas, metal or Lumachrome. Only prints from Douglas DeVore and Justin Majeczky are eligible for the Tahoe Fund benefit, including online orders with free shipping.

“We have long been supporters of the Tahoe Fund and its work, so being able to give back to the organization that is doing so much to make a difference for everyone who loves Tahoe was an easy choice,” said Alpenglow Gallery owners, Justin Majeczky and Douglas DeVore.

The Alpenglow Gallery is located in historic downtown Truckee at 9940 Donner Pass Road and open Friday through Monday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Learn more and see their available prints at thealpenglowgallery.com.

Every hour flown by Mountain Lion Aviation this year has helped the Tahoe Fund get more work done on the ground to improve the Lake Tahoe environment. 

At the beginning of the year, the private aviation charter company teamed up with the Tahoe Fund to donate funds for every hour flown. Now, they have contributed nearly $17,000 to support projects that are helping lower and sequester carbon emissions, including: 

• Forest health projects that help reduce the threat of catastrophic wildfire and its polluting emissions. Funds will be channeled to the Smartest Forest Fund, which supports innovative projects and new technology to improve forest health.
  
• Transportation projects that reduce vehicle miles traveled and carbon emissions, such as the TART Connect program, which offers free, on-demand public transportation across the region.
  
• Watershed restoration projects that help improve lake clarity, reduce the prevalence of aquatic invasive species, and strengthen habitat and ecological health, especially in the Greater Upper Truckee Watershed, the largest and most impaired watershed in the region.

This partnership is part of the Tahoe Fund’s $1 for Tahoe program. Created to offer a simple way for those who love Tahoe to help make it even better, the $1 for Tahoe program raises money to restore and improve the environment and enhance recreational opportunities.

Proceeds from the $1 for Tahoe program support the efforts of the Tahoe Fund in its mission to improve the Lake Tahoe environment for all to enjoy. To learn more about how to get involved, visit: www.tahoefund.org.
