WETLAND PRESERVE RESTORATION
Hazel Wolf Wetlands Preserve Pura Vida volunteers are helping to restore the Hazel Wolf Wetlands Preserve. The preserve is a pristine wetland wildlife refuge in King County Washington. The preserve's 116 acres contain several different wetland and forest habitats. The Hazel Wolf Wetlands are key to a network of protected habitats stretching from the Issaquah Alps to Lake Sammamish. This biologically rich area was preserved in 1995 thanks to the cooperative efforts of concerned citizens, progressive corporations, county government and Cascade Land Conservancy. The area is heavily used by local residents and also used weekly as a field laboratory for local high school students.

SEATTLE GREEN POWER PROGRAM
Pura Vida helps support the Seattle City Light Green Power program. This programs helps support local renewable energy demonstration projects that are not currently a part of City Light's resource portfolio. Funds help develop the local market for solar and raise awareness of renewable energy within our community.

Green Power

Since, 2002, the program has completed solar electric projects at schools, universities, libraries, parks, and other not-for-profit facilities. A portion of funds are used for local education and training activities for students, building professionals, and the general public.
