Help us Protect the Russian River.

Russian Riverkeeper envisions a future in which an informed community works together to recognize, protect and benefit from a healthy Russian River watershed.

The values inherent in our river system are rich and diverse. The Russian River and its creeks provide a habitat for native Salmon and Steelhead, a source of clean drinking water, recreational opportunities, and natural beauty and economic benefits for the entire region. To ensure our river is protected for generations to come, we believe our community will need to work actively with the local, state and federal agencies charged with protecting this most valued public trust resource.

As part of the international Waterkeeper Alliance, Russian Riverkeeper monitors, patrols and educates in pursuit of a healthy watershed for all. As an organization we hold ourselves to the highest ideals and values. We embrace education as a tool for change. We also believe protecting our natural resources and a thriving economy are not mutually exclusive, but closely related goals that can serve each other well, as outlined in our Russian River Bill of Rights.

We invite you to browse our website and let us know what you think. Please consider your ability to support the efforts of the Russian Riverkeeper through your financial contributions and/or participation in one of our volunteer programs. We appreciate your interest in the work we are doing.
