November 2020

Did you know that the Great Lakes are the biggest freshwater source in the world? Lake Erie is the most productive for fishing of all the Great Lakes. Your support helps make our streams clean, clear and healthy so they can support this complex ecosystem. By donating to PCS, you help us reach our goals of restoring rivers that lead to Lake Erie beaches that promote fishable and swimmable conditions for generations.

GiveNovemberSuccess and heartbreak have been the themes of 2020 for us. We have had the success of Clean Your Streams Day, Get the Lead Out, Clean Your Streams 365 program, and a fishing line recycling program. We have been fortunate to have an adaptable team, planning teams, board members, and volunteers during 2020. They have been instrumental in our success in 2020 and we have been grateful to be able to provide safe experiences.

Though, at the heart of Partners for Clean Streams, we are a community-based nonprofit. We see and feel all of the agony 2020 has caused in our communities. As a way to come together, while we’re apart this year, we are asking those that can give to help support your streams. We pride ourselves on being a sustainable organization and being resourceful is one of our great qualities, so as little as $10 goes a very long way for us. That money can be used for gloves that will last many Clean Your Streams Programs, $25 will provide grabbers that will be used for years to keep our volunteers safe, $50 will provide supplies for the Storm Drain Marking program.

If you are planning to donate or becoming a member, we recommended donating on Giving Tuesday, December 1st. On this day only, we will be eligible for a $5,000 charitable grant through Toledo Community Foundation, a local nonprofit resource center.
