Tahoe Fund this summer gave out $131,000 for four environmental improvement projects that address erosion control, beach improvements, bike paths and the removal of invasive Asian clams.

Project recipients were California State Parks for a bridge across Angora Creek on the South Shore; Nevada State Parks for beach improvements including ADA access at Sand Harbor; Tahoe City Public Utility District for a mile section of bike path along the West Shore; and the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency for the removal of Asian clams at the mouth of Emerald Bay.

Founded in 2010, the nonprofit Tahoe Fund is dedicated to raising money for projects that will improve lake clarity, enhance recreation and inspire environmental stewardship in the Lake Tahoe Basin. The Tahoe Fund welcomes donations of any size to help sustain the organization and the natural environment of the Lake Tahoe Basin.
