Virginia Office, Richmond

Since opening the Virginia office in the early 1980s, the Chesapeake Bay Foundation has been leading the efforts to Save the Bay in the Old Dominion through environmental advocacy, education, science, policy, litigation, and restoration. Our efforts are focused on ensuring Virginia meets its 2025 Bay cleanup goals to reduce pollution from sewage treatment plants, farms, and urban and suburban stormwater runoff.
 
Today, CBF boasts offices in Richmond and a Hampton Roads office in Virginia Beach; field staff in Charlottesville, the Shenandoah Valley, and the Eastern Shore; oyster restoration facilities in Gloucester and Virginia Beach; and seven outdoor environmental education programs across the state, including a student leadership program.
