Double the impact of your gift now through December 31!

Sunday, December 31, 2017 - 12:00am to 11:45pm
Winter sunrise, South Saint Paul

As the season of giving is upon us, we hope that you’ll support FMR to ensure the life-sustaining force of the Mighty Mississippi is protected, restored and enhanced for all – this generation and the next. 

All gifts received on or before December 31 are being matched, dollar for dollar, by an anonymous donor!

In 2018, with your support, we will: 
• Protect and restore lands critical to the health of the river, people, pollinators and other native wildlife
• Work with agriculture groups to advance market-based strategies to reduce agricultural water pollution in Minnesota (the biggest source of river pollution, today)
• Ensure that future riverfront development respects the river’s unique natural and cultural resources, as well as its vital ecological functions 

Water truly is life. And the Mississippi River is our wellspring.

Thank you, in advance, for helping to protect it!
