The Maki Foundation, established in 1981, is a grant-making organization dedicated to environmental protection in the western United States. Focusing on the preservation of the Rocky Mountain West's wild lands, rivers, and wilderness, the foundation supports local grassroots organizations working to defend public lands and promote biodiversity.
With a geographic area of interest spanning New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana, the Maki Foundation seeks to improve public lands policy and address threats such as mineral development and unsustainable water projects. Grant recipients typically receive modest funding ranging from $1,000 to $5,000, enabling them to make a significant impact in protecting the region's natural resources.
