Donations can be made directly at: https://gofund.me/33be2dbdc “From rural wells to municipal water systems, and from Iowa’s rivers to the Gulf of Mexico’s Dead Zone, the monitoring network plays a vital role in protecting public health and environmental resilience. Without it, Iowans lose transparency and accountability during a worsening water quality crisis” says Dale Braun, President of the Iowa Division of the Izaak Walton League of America representing 7,000 members in the state. “The Iowa Nature Summit is excited to partner with the Ike’s on this critical project,” said Prof. Neil Hamilton of Drake University, Summit organizer. “One of our core goals is to identify concrete actions Iowans can take to protect our natural resources. Funding the water monitors gives us the information needed to make smarter decisions about improving Iowa’s water quality.” Admission to the talk is FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, with dinner at 6 available for purchase.
