This fall, NSRWA will embark on our second major river restoration project as the Town of Marshfield begins removal of the Veterans Memorial Park Dam on the South River. This project is over 10 years in the making, and would not have been possible without multiple partnerships and collaborations. You, our members, help make this work possible. Thank you for your trust in our work towards restoring our rivers health.

Children and youth learn to become stewards with the NSRWA, and we need your help today to ensure we are able to continue educating young people, their parents, their broader communities, and more - all towards ensuring the long-term health and safety of our fragile ecosystem. Projects like the dam removals are opportunities for young people to learn about the impacts humans have had on the environment, and how people can work together to restore it.

As we approach the end of 2024, now is the time to support the NSRWA. Thanks to the generosity of our members, we have received a generous matching gift. By renewing your membership today, your support will receive a match, up to $50,000. Your generosity sustains the work we do to protect and preserve the watershed. Thank you for your generous support of our work.
