Who We Are

The mission of Freshwater Society is to inspire and empower people to value and conserve our freshwater resources. 

Since 1968 – two years before the first Earth Day – Freshwater Society has been a leading public nonprofit organization dedicated to conserving, restoring, and protecting freshwater resources and their surrounding watersheds. To achieve this goal, our organization:

  • Recognizes the vital role of freshwater to all living things and the impending crisis in the quantity and quality of accessible freshwater.
  • Dedicates its experience and resources to activities that lead to the understanding, protection, enhancement, and restoration of freshwater resources.
  • Invites the participation and support of individuals, associations, business and industry, institutions, educators, and government in these activities.

What We Do

Our work for water includes our volunteer training program (Minnesota Water Stewards), facilitating community conversations, hosting conferences and lectures, presenting scientific research, and advocating for science-based, water-friendly policies.
