Explore a Greener Tomorrow Together
Gaia is our Earth. Help us in our mission to restore her.
Environmental Restoration & Cleanups
Your support helps us remove trash, debris, and pollution from local beaches, parks, and waterways. Donations fund tools, cleanup supplies, disposal costs, and equipment maintenance.
Educational Outreach
We develop programs that teach families, students, and local groups about conservation, environmental responsibility, and the importance of protecting natural spaces.
Habitat Rehabilitation
We use contributions to restore damaged ecosystems, plant native vegetation, improve soil health, and support habitats that local wildlife rely on for survival.
Partnership Projects
We collaborate with other nonprofits and government agencies on large-scale restoration efforts. Your contributions help cover project coordination, shared resources, and materials.
Based in the Northwest Indiana and the Chicagoland region, Restore Gaia is a community-driven environmental organization committed to restoring, cleaning, and rehabilitating our local parks, beaches, trails, and wildlife habitats. Nestled between the shoreline of Lake Michigan and some of the Midwest’s most diverse natural preserves, our organization works to protect the outdoor spaces that define our region.
We lead hands-on conservation initiatives such as shoreline cleanups, invasive plant removal, habitat restoration, and wildlife rehabilitation support. Our mission is to preserve the natural beauty and ecological health of our environment while fostering a stronger connection between people and the land around them.
Collaboration is at the heart of what we do. We proudly partner with fellow nonprofits, local municipalities, county and state agencies, schools, and community groups to amplify our impact. Through shared resources, coordinated projects, and community education, we work together to build a cleaner and more resilient ecosystem for both people and wildlife.
Restore Gaia believes that lasting environmental change happens when communities come together. With the support of volunteers, donors, and partner organizations, we are committed to protecting the region’s natural spaces—one project at a time.
