TRIB·U·TAR·Y:
1. A river or stream flowing into a larger river or lake
2. A monthly donor to Colorado Water Trust
When two bodies of water, or tributaries, join together, they transform into something bigger and stronger.
This is why our monthly donors are our Tributaries, people who come together to make our rivers stronger and healthier. For $15, $30, $100, or more per month, you can become a Tributary and sustain your rivers year-round.

Tributaries are also included in our myRiver Balance program!
myRiver Balance is a way for people to balance their water use by returning the amount of water they use each year to Colorado’s rivers and streams, through a contribution to Colorado Water Trust.
This means, that your donated dollars each month will help balance your annual water use and go directly toward the purchase or lease of water for rivers.
