The Trust for Hidden Villa

Hidden Villa was founded by Frank and Josephine Duveneck, who purchased the land in 1924 and offered it as a gathering place for discussion, reflection, and incubation of social reform. Over the following decades, the Duvenecks established the first Hostel on the Pacific Coast (1937), the first residential multiracial summer camp (1945), and Hidden Villa’s Environmental Education Program (1970). The Trust for Hidden Villa was established as an educational nonprofit in 1960. Today this 1600 acre community gem, in Los Altos Hills, provides opportunities to learn about the world around us and each other, participate in sustainable food systems, and develop the next generation of green educators, innovative farmers, and thoughtful leaders. Hidden Villa's mission is to inspire a just and sustainable future through our programs, land, and legacy.

Tualatin River Watershed Council

The Tualatin River Watershed Council links land, water and people. We bring together all interests in the basin to promote and improve watershed health. We work together through cooperation, collaboration and communication.  All of our actions affect the health of our watershed. We need your help in improving our watershed’s health! A small group of agency and government representatives began meeting in 1993 to discuss formation of a watershed council because they recognized the need to minimize watershed impacts and develop local solutions in a comprehensive manner. The Tualatin River Watershed Council was formed in 1996 to provide coordinated and integrated resource planning for the Tualatin River Watershed.  Its purpose is to: Increase local input in management of watershed resources. Initiate resolution of problems and issues within the watershed. Identify problems and issues of importance to local citizens, groups, and users of the watershed. Diminish and eliminate further degradation of the watershed and its resources through better management practices. Increase the viability, diversity, and health of the watershed. Undertake a proactive approach in management of the watershed. Create and implement a watershed action plan encompassing, but not limited to current and potential problems and issues, potential solutions, restoration/ enhancement measures, and monitoring programs within the Tualatin River Watershed.

Fondation Jean de la Mennais

Le module communautaire unique du Collège Jean de la Mennais est soutenu financièrement par la Fondation Jean de la Mennais. Cette action communautaire et sociale implique plus de 500 personnes : garçons et filles, chez les élèves actuels, les anciens et le personnel du collège. Étant impliqués dans l’action communautaire, ces jeunes sont témoins au fil des ans de la qualité des liens tissés entre eux et les personnes aidées : des liens empreints de respect, de compassion, d’écoute, de sensibilité, de chaleur et de vie. De cette expérience unique, chacun en retire du bonheur, de la reconnaissance et de l’espoir. Ces rencontres sensibilisent les élèves du collège aux réalités humaines et spirituelles de ce monde. À travers leur engagement, ces dernières deviennent les artisans d’une société où l’entraide et l’acceptation des différences se veulent des assises solides.
