The WTR Network is sustained by a diverse confluence of revenue streams that creates a resilient community-based web of support and a strong alignment with our community values. Every contribution is deeply appreciated as it contributes to this confluence – from event registration donations and membership fees to large donations and grants from individuals and foundations that are committed to the Great Turning.
Featured below are the foundations and organizations who have provided major sources of funding to us over the years.
