On this Giving Tuesday, we hope you’ll consider a gift in support of healthy watersheds and wild places. Your contribution this giving season is critical to the work Colorado TU accomplishes throughout the year. As we look toward 2021, we look forward to continuing our stream management planning efforts on rivers around the state, from the Blue, Gunnison, and Arkansas Rivers to South Boulder Creek. We are working diligently to continue to provide youth education programming through virtual adaptions for STREAM Girls and Trout in the Classroom and stand ready for when we can resume in-person learning with the next generation of river stewards. Our Bull Moose Advocacy Committee is keeping close watch of the upcoming legislative session in Colorado and will be ready to mobilize our grassroots members across the state in support of water-wise and fish-friendly policies. And we look forward to working with our TU chapters and partner organizations and again hosting volunteer days to benefit native trout and healthy riparian habitats.
By making a gift today you’ll not only be supporting coldwater conservation in Colorado, you’ll be helping us to raise even more funds for our work through a special matching opportunity. Freestone Aquatics has generously pledged to match up to $7500 of any new or increased donations on Gives Day! Their generosity means your Gives Day gift helps us to raise an additional $15,000 for Colorado’s rivers and fisheries.
Help us meet the match by donating this Giving Tuesday!
We realize this has been an incredibly tough year for many, and yet we have also seen how important rivers and angling are to providing solace and a healthy outlet during these challenging times. Our work at Colorado TU will continue long after the pandemic has ended - we hope you will help us to continue this work in 2021 and beyond by making your Gives Day gift today!
Thank you for your support,
- Annie, Dan, David, Geoff, Jen, and Shannon
