Alone we are just drops in the river, but together we make mighty waves

During this season of thanks, we are grateful for the community of supporters who help make our work possible! Project partners, donors, family foundations, other non-profits, businesses, and local and state government agencies are all among the long list of folks that we are proud to call our community.

In 2023, the Water Trust helped bring flows to the Yampa and Fraser Rivers, as well as to our permanent projects throughout the state. In total, we restored 1.9 billion gallons of water to Colorado rivers and streams this year. Increasing river flows bolster local ecosystems, communities, and economies. Rivers and streams are the lifeblood of our state, and when they run dry, we’re all impacted.

Alone we are just drops in the river, but together we make mighty waves—thank you for your support!

With gratitude,
The Colorado Water Trust Team
