Supporting local initiatives

Google collaborated with the Great Outdoors Foundation and the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship to contribute $1.3 million to support a 47-site grade stabilization project to improve the quality of water flowing into the Missouri River, the Mississippi River, and the Gulf of Mexico — all of which are critical to vibrant communities across our nation.
