The Gallatin River is the heart of our community and our mission to protect it has always been powered by people like you. As we look toward the year ahead, we are excited to open up more ways for our neighbors, experts, and river-lovers to play a direct role in our work through our Program and Mission Support Committees.
These committees are designed to bring more voices to the table, ensuring our projects are shaped by the communities they serve. Whether you’re a long-time supporter or looking for a new way to give back, there’s a place for you to dive in. This is a volunteer position.
