Our Stories
Explore water restoration projects
As part of our commitment to achieve net positive water, we are restoring water to support the communities we call home. To date, we have funded more than 30 water restoration projects, collectively restoring billions of gallons of water to local watersheds each year. These projects—whether agriculturally focused, conservation centered, or targeted at in-stream flow protection—aim to address local water issues and support the well-being of our communities and the environment.
