Join us for our annual fundraiser and help us write the next chapter as we listen to stories of the Spokane River from local writers. Their stories are our inspiration for the Spoken River event and fuel our mission to protect the river.
As a young and growing organization, we need your support. We monitor 111 miles of river from Lake CDA to the Columbia River. We use law & policy to defend clean water in our basin's rivers. We educate, collect scientific data, pick up litter, and reach out to the unhoused along the river.

Your Support Goes a Long Way to Protecting Your River:
Our work to protect the Spokane River continues as we transition to new leadership. We are a newer free-standing organization, working with law and policy to defend clean water in our basin's rivers. We educate our youth about healthy watersheds and fish. We collaborate to collect scientific data, we pick up litter, we conduct river patrols and we do outreach to the urban homeless population along the Spokane River. In doing so, you will support the operations and programs that protect and benefit the Spokane River, its economy and the well-being of its citizens.
