IN 2013, THE FOUNDATION RECEIVED A GRANT FROM THE WALTON FOUNDATION FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF ASSISTING WITH A REGIONAL WATERSHED HEALTH EFFORT THROUGH A LARGE AGENCY AND NGO PARTNERSHIP CALLED THE ESCALANTE RIVER WATERSHED PARTNERSHIP. THE PURPOSE OF THIS PARTNERSHIP IS TO (1) REMOVE RUSSIAN OLIVE TREES AND CONTROL FURTHER INVASION, AND (2) REINTRODUCE BEAVER BACK INTO THE WATERSHED. THE FOUNDATION'S LOCAL INITIATIVES CONTINUED AS WELL, WHICH INCLUDE PUBLICATION OF THE SAGE PAGE (4 TIMES PER YEAR), ACTING AS "FISCAL AGENT" BY ACCEPTING TAX DEDUCTIBLE DONATIONS AND GRANTS ON THEIR BEHALF FOR BOULDER PARK FRIENDS, FRIENDS OF BOULDER LIBRARY, BOULDER ARTS COUNCIL, ETC. THE FOUNDATION ALSO WORKS ON MISCELLANEOUS PROJECTS LIKE THE VIDEO PROJECT.
