Most large projects and programs that SPSSEG undertake are funded primarily through state and federal grant monies. These funds allow us to do significant, on-the-ground restoration projects, but they come with stringent spending requirements. Many grants do not allow for overhead expenses such as rent and electricity bills. These are often the limiting factors to our work, but could be alleviated with donations of unrestricted funds from members.
As a donor, you, your friends, and your family will be directly supporting local salmon recovery efforts! For every dollar in unrestricted funds that we receive from members and business partners, we are able to leverage hundreds of dollars of grant funding that directly fund habitat restoration projects in the region. Now that’s a sound investment!
SPSSEG is a 501 (c) 3 organization and your contribution is tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. (Our EIN is 91-1519762).
