TRIB·U·TAR·Y:
1. A river or stream flowing into a larger river or lake
2. A monthly donor to Colorado Water Trust
The Tributary community is a collective—together we're able to make a significant difference to Colorado's rivers by boosting the work of Colorado Water Trust. It's more than I could do on my own, and I love being a part of this larger cause.
When two bodies of water, or tributaries, join together, they transform into something bigger and stronger.
That’s why we call our monthly donors Tributaries. They are 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.
In addition to the knowledge that your donations are adding water back to rivers across Colorado, you’ll recieve:
Special pricing for Colorado Water Trust events like RiverBank.
Annual, behind-the-scenes updates from Executive Director Kate Ryan about our projects statewide.
An annual, personalized impact recap showing how your monthly donations make waves for Colorado’s rivers.
Donate Monthly & Add Water Back to Colorado’s Rivers
Every amount of water added to a river helps cool water temperatures and improves habitat for fish.
$15 per month
can return 240,000 gallons of water to Colorado’s rivers and streams.
Adding more water to rivers not only benefits fish, but improves river conditions for local economies that depend on healthy flows.
$30 per month

Adding more water to rivers not only benefits fish and local economies, but restores the beauty of a healthy, flowing, Colorado river for all to enjoy.

can return 1.6 million gallons of water to Colorado’s rivers and streams.
Become a Tributary and we’ll send you a Colorado Water Trust hat!
(And if you’re already a Tributary and you haven’t received your hat yet, let’s fix that! Just email Barrett and she’ll send you one.)
