This Give to the Max season, your generosity will directly support the Our River Campaign, FMR's vital multi-year initiative to protect the Mississippi River. We're also excited to share that from November 1 to 20, all Give to the Max gifts will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $20,000, by a generous donor, doubling the impact of your contribution towards the campaign.

Your gift will support advocacy to reduce and stop agricultural and industrial pollution, restore lands and habitats for wildlife, educate youth about the river and its health, and activate community river stewardship.

Three easy ways to participate:

  1. Give online through Friends of the Mississippi River's GiveMN page 
     
  2. Make a gift on Friends of the Mississippi River's Our River Campaign page
     
  3. Make a check out to Friends of the Mississippi River and mail it to the address at the bottom of this page. Note that it's for Give to the Max Day.

Give to the Max Day is Thursday, November 20, but you don't have to wait to support our work protecting the Mississippi River. All gifts made between November 1 and November 20 will count towards our $20,000 matching gift challenge. 

Take action by supporting the river's health and the communities it sustains. Together, we can ensure the river's health today and into the future.
