National Rivers Month with the water partnership
Give | Gather | Act | Celebrate
At this moment, no act you make is too small in protecting our River.
We know that action is most powerful when collected — and shared.
Build power with us this National Rivers Month by raising $15,000 to fill critical restoration funding gaps and helping to grow our community of empowered stewards.
This month, you can GIVE or GATHER to advance protection of our River.
Give for our River
We’re raising $15,000 to advance four restoration projects – and spearhead more like them!
It’s true, grants help fund a bulk of your local habitat improvement projects, but certainly not all of the costs. Contribution from community members who are committed to protecting out our water-y habitats help close the gap, and make full impact possible.
Gather & cONNECT for our River
We’re growing our community of people who are committed to the ongoing effort of protecting our River, streams, wildlife, and ways of life.
Find our list of sweet perks and happenings! Then Bring a friend, co-worker, or new neighbor to one of our National River Month events to grow our potential for collective impact. More people settling in the Bitterroot means there are more people who can – and need to – take action for our River.
