GALLATIN RIVER TASK FORCE
The Gallatin River Forever
capital campaign has generated just over $1.1 million to date, including
campaign costs.
The Gallatin River Forever
public phase was launched in June 2018 with leading support coming from Madison
County, Yellowstone Club, and Eric and Wendy Schmidt, as well as tremendous
support from hundreds of local community members, businesses and foundations.
The campaign is set to raise over $1.2 million to conserve and protect the
Gallatin River watershed by June 30.
“With the stewardship of
incredible community leaders and advocates for the Gallatin, we have achieved
new heights for our organization and mission,” said Ryan Newcomb, director of development
for the task force. “This momentum has allowed us to take our work to protect
and preserve the Gallatin further than ever with long-needed river-access
improvement projects, increased water monitoring and community education
program growth, and large investments in organizational sustainability.”
