How do volunteers make a difference for this organization?
Volunteers keep an eye on the Willamette River from Eugene to Portland. Together these volunteers form a network of individuals that work to protect and restore the river's health. Find out how you can become a River Guardian today!
Willamette Riverkeeper works to protect and restore the Willamette River’s water quality and habitat through our advocacy, education and volunteer programs.
Our goal is to enable the Willamette River to function more naturally, with cold, clean water, and provide a healthy habitat for fish and wildlife.
We believe that a river with good water quality and abundant natural habitat is a basic right for all people. The Willamette River belongs to all of us, and should be protected as such.
We're making a difference by:
- Monitoring permits related to water quality,
- Advocating for strong policies that promote a healthy river,
- Engaging volunteers in visual monitoring and water quality testing,
- Educating the public about river issues and recreation opportunities.
We are also:
- Promoting habitat restoration,
- Working for a comprehensive cleanup of the Portland Harbor Superfund Site
- Establishing the Willamette River Water Trail.
Please join us in keeping the Willamette River a healthy place for all of us!
