Our Year End Appeal

Here at Genesee RiverWatch, we are grateful for the community support that makes our work possible. Together, we are having a meaningful impact on the Genesee River and its surrounding communities. That is why we invite you to consider a donation of $100, $250 – or an amount of your choosing – to Genesee RiverWatch.

We launched Genesee RiverWatch over 10 years ago, building on 40 years of environmental leadership of the Center for Environmental Information, started in 1974.  Our mission: “To champion solutions that improve the water quality of the Genesee and initiatives that connect people to the River.” At the inaugural Genesee River Basin Summit, we presented our film “Restoring Our River, Work Worth Doing”. This short film focuses on the beauty of the Genesee, from its source in Gold, Pennsylvania to Rochester’s harbor and the work needed to preserve and enhance the Genesee for future generations.  We stand by the film’s conclusion – this is indeed “Work Worth Doing”. View the film.

In that spirit, your participation in our Year End Appeal will help ensure that we have the funding in 2026 and beyond to continue our work. Any amount is welcome and appreciated!
