Fund for Lake MI

This is a very big deal for the health of our fresh water, and subsequently our communities. wpr.org/wisconsin-regu…

A beautiful feature on Lions Den Gorge, part of the Ozaukee Washington Land Trust, and right here on Lake Michigan. awealthofnature.org/donges-bay-gor…

Our friends at @SEW_RPC were at the PowerUp College and Resource Fair sharing info about their chloride freshwater study and career pathways toward work like this. The Fair helps students in Kenosha and Racine Counties learn about college readiness opportunities.

Loving this shot from our friends at @mkeriverkeeper, whose work to improve Milwaukee's rivers is why more of us can enjoy scenes like this. Bluejay in the Milwaukee River corridor.

Those of you in and around Milwaukee's Third Ward may have noticed the clean up work happening in the river. We're excited to see this project underway! Here's all the important details. mkewaterwaypartners.org/milwaukee-rive…

Just caught this on @RiveredgeNC's socials and we're so excited to get out there. NIGHT SKI, SNOWSHOE, AND CANDLELIGHT HIKES - Mark your calendars! *Friday, December 16th, 4:30-8 PM *EVERY FRIDAY in January and February, 4:30-8 PM Looking forward to winter fun!

@MMSD_MKE is cleaning up and safely disposing of toxic polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB’s) that were flushed into sewers by a private company. PCB’s are toxic legacy chemicals that were banned in 1978 which require removal to keep Milwaukee's rivers and Lake Michigan clean.

This all adds up to less pollutants getting in the Pike River. We're glad to partner with @RootPikeWIN and @uwparkside on this innovative project that benefits all of us. racinecountyeye.com/root-pike-win-…

It's amazing our lakefront was ever taken for granted. So glad to play a part, with many other committed partners, in helping it shine. 📸(IG): @jasoncarterphotos

"Why am I so fascinated with Jones Island? Because no place in Milwaukee packs so much history into such a small area." We sponsored this documentary and we're excited for its premiere on 11/17 on @MilwPBS. jsonline.com/story/opinion/…

Proud of our work to help the @WarMemorialCntr ensure that runoff from their parking lot is both reduced and cleaned before entering Lake Michigan. Learn how in the video! Thanks to @MMSD_MKE for recognizing the work with a Green Luminary Award.

Spotted this on the UWM School of Freshwater Sciences page today and had to share. Coho salmon in Milwaukee's Inner Harbor. Go, Coho, go!

Glad to support the great work of the WATERshed program. Grateful for all they do to educate our next generation about the value of living in a coastal community with freshwater resources, and to demonstrate how human activities impact local watersheds. journaltimes.com/lifestyles/fai…

Stony Brook is the only cold-water trout stream in Calument County. This work restores trout habitat and ensures we all can enjoy it for generations. Thanks, @4lnrp! lnrp.org/newsandupdates…
