Give back to the blue campaign

We are so excited to launch our “Give Back to the Blue River” campaign — a simple, community-driven way for local businesses to support clean water, healthy fish habitat, and a thriving Blue River.

Local fly shops, outdoor outfitters, cafes, breweries, and other community-minded businesses
can host a donation box at their counter. Customers can drop in their spare cash or
change, knowing that every dollar helps protect the Blue River and the lands that feed it.

BRWG will provide:

• A small, attractive donation box for your counter.
• Signage and materials explaining the campaign and your partnership.
• Recognition on BRWG’s website, social media, and newsletters as a “Blue River Partner.”

Donations support:

• Water quality monitoring through our volunteer River Watch program.
• Restoration projects to improve river health and fish habitat.
• Education and outreach to engage our community in river stewardship.

Sign up to host a “Give Back to the Blue River” box today! Email: [email protected]
