Work on our Ngwerere River Restoration Project  Continues! 

We kicked off the second round of cleanups in our Ngwerere River Restoration Project on September 15th and 16th, coinciding with World Cleanup Day.  It was a amazing to be  joined by over 80 volunteers, donors and supporters and we could not be more thankful for their participation. 


Keeping our rivers clean and safe is a sacred responsibility which is rooted in a deep feeling of respect for all life.  There are so many reasons to protect our waterways.   It mitigates climate change by conserving wildlife and biodiversity by helping plants, trees and fish flourish - rivers are great transporters of  nutrients.  A clean river is a source of clean drinking water for humans and animals and provides sustainable sources of food, directly and indirectly.  Rivers, lakes and oceans also are places that hold our histories, traditions and cultures.  We become a part of all of these things when we show up and take care of our rivers.
