2024 Impact by the Numbers
The Gallatin River is at the heart of our community and way of life.
It connects us all, enabling life to thrive in this incredibly special place we’re privileged to call home. With this privilege comes a responsibility, and we’re asking for your help to fulfill our promise to protect and restore the river that gives us so much.
Increasing development, heavy recreational use, and shifting climate patterns are taking a toll on the Gallatin, its streams, groundwater, and wildlife, and your support helps ensure that these vital resources remain accessible and clean for generations to come.

Recent Project Highlights
This fall, we began construction on three significant projects, collaborating with private and public agencies to improve water conservation infrastructure, recreational access, water quality, and restore the powerful ecological functions of our land and water:
Purple Pipe Water Reuse Infrastructure
West Fork Wetland Enhancement
Greek Creek Streambank Restoration and River Access Improvements
