Recently American Whitewater sent our Fall Appeal to our current members. This letter highlights some of the many stewardship projects American Whitewater is working on and some of the current threats that whitewater enthusiasts face.
As you review the Fall Appeal, please consider a couple of things. First, that membership in American Whitewater is more than a subscription to our Journal. Your membership fuels our stewardship work. For each dollar that you invest in membership, American Whitewater is able to leverage that dollar for another two dollars in foundation and sponsorship support. Thus, your membership dollars go three times as far in supporting on-the-ground river projects. Second, American Whitewater is very lean administratively. Over the past few years we have learned how to live within our means; no big office space to hold down and our staff understands the value of stretching your dollar.
As 2008 draws to a close, we see ample cause to celebrate our many accomplishments. Your donation will bring substantial results for you and your community. Please include American Whitewater in your year-end giving to fuel our river stewardship work.
