Be a voice for the Cape Fear River

We stand up for the river at the local, state and national levels and the number of members we are representing matters – help us build our strength in advocating for the river!

Our members are also vital in sustaining our ongoing educational efforts, volunteer opportunities, and water quality monitoring programs.

Membership Levels:

Our membership levels provide insight into how your membership donation helps support this work and our education and water quality programming, but we believe everyone should have an opportunity to be a voice for the river; if these levels are beyond your financial comfort level, please consider becoming a “Voice for the River” with a $5 contribution.

Your contribution as a Friend of the River can help sustain our monthly watershed cleanups through the purchase of gloves, bags, trash pickers, and more! Each year our volunteers divert thousands of pounds of trash from our waterways.
