01What it does

What Mountain Climate Fund does

Mission

The Mountain Climate Fund's primary purpose is to support mountain communities and environments adapt to climate change with a focus in the Himalayan region.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.

Program

  1. Khasar Solar Water Project. The rapid melting of glaciers in Khasar had created a water crisis. There was little remaining water to irrigate crops and feed their livestock. Working with our local partner, Navikarana Trust, we installed a solar water pump to bring water from the Zanskar River to the community reservoir. The 30 families in Khasar now have long-term access to water for their agriculture and livestock.

Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
