Give to the Max for the Boundary Waters-BWCA

The Boundary Waters holds a piece of my heart, as I know it does yours. This pristine wilderness — with its crystal-clear lakes, towering white and red pines, and star-filled skies — has shaped countless lives, including mine. I started by going with my dad, and now I'm able to enjoy it with my own kids!

Right now, this sacred place faces its greatest threat: proposed copper-sulfide mines that would put North America's cleanest waters at risk. The science is clear: this type of mining poses catastrophic risks to both the Boundary Waters and Lake Superior. These aren't just lakes and forests — they're national treasures that belong to all of us and to future generations.

This Give to the Max Day, you can help protect this irreplaceable wilderness. Thanks to a generous matching gift, every dollar you donate will be DOUBLED, making your impact twice as powerful.
