Our vast watershed stretches across two states and four counties. It includes landscapes that are rural, agricultural, suburban, urban, AND coastal. It is a true unifier of us all - supporting a wide variety of people, plants, animals, insects, fungi…the list goes on and on! Diversity in our ecosystem is essential to maintaining equilibrium, harmony and well-being for all living things. Without one, we experience a strain and loss on our resources, so we each must appreciate and protect that diversity.
Gunpowder Valley Conservancy (GVC) has been working since 1989 to preserve and restore our beautiful Gunpowder Watershed. Please help GVC to raise $60,000 in support of land preservation and watershed restoration within the Gunpowder Watershed.
JUST ANNOUNCED! We are DOUBLING all donations up to $15,000 now through the end of 2024.
What will my donation support?
