November match a hit! — This just in: December donations to be doubled, too!

Help FMR earn an additional $7,500 to help the river!

Thanks to generous Friends of the Mississippi River members —including many brand new members! — we earned the full $15,000 matching gift offered to us for the month of November! We even exceeded it by over $9,000! Huge thanks to everyone who gave to help us reach our match goal and keep up the momentum for success in 2011.

As if this werent enough to celebrate, an anonymous donor has offered an additional $7,500 match for gifts made in December! If you haven't donated to FMR yet this year, you can still help us leverage additional funds by giving now via our online contribution form, by phone (651-222-2193), or mailing your gift (Attn: Heather Haynes, Friends of the Mississippi River, 360 N Robert St., Ste. 400, St. Paul, MN 55101).

Thank you again to our generous community of supporters for all your gifts and encouragement! You are very appreciated by all of us at Friends of the Mississippi River.

— Heather Haynes, Development Director
