Grant Opportunities Mattole Salmon Group's focus on salmon habitat restoration aligns with grant funded programs from state and federal agencies and foundations. With a small team, they can pursue scalable restoration contracts, permitting assistance, monitoring and reporting services as bundled offerings to attract grant support.

NGO Partnerships There are established conservation organizations in the region and beyond. Partnering with NGOs such as The Nature Conservancy or Trout Unlimited could unlock larger project bids, knowledge sharing, and cofunding opportunities, with opportunities for subcontracting in data collection and community engagement.

Digital Fundraising Existing PayPal integration and social channels indicate potential for scaled online fundraising and donor engagement. Offering digital fundraising services, donor CRM integration, and targeted online campaigns can diversify revenue beyond project work.
