Mountain Lion Aviation, the only local private aviation charter company in Lake Tahoe, has raised over $100,000 for the Tahoe Fund. Since the partnership formed in 2023, Mountain Lion has donated for every hour flown to support environmental improvement projects that help lower and sequester carbon emissions.

This funding is directed to efforts that are tied to carbon reduction. Some of the projects that benefit include: the Smartest Forest Fund, which supports innovative pilot projects and new technology to reduce the threat of catastrophic wildfire and its polluting emissions, and create healthier forests that are better able to sequester carbon.

This partnership is part of the Tahoe Fund’s $1 for Tahoe program. Created to offer a simple way for those who love Tahoe to help make it even better, the $1 for Tahoe program raises money to restore and improve the environment and enhance recreational opportunities. Proceeds from the $1 for Tahoe program support the efforts of the Tahoe Fund in its mission to improve the Lake Tahoe environment for all to enjoy.
