End of Year Giving 2025: It Starts Right Here

As 2025 comes to an end, one truth rises above the rest: real environmental change starts right here at home. While national policies and global summits shape the bigger picture, the most meaningful progress often begins with everyday people choosing to care for the place they call home.


This year, Stillwater proved just how powerful community action can be.

Across our city and surrounding neighborhoods, residents worked together to support local green businesses, maintain and restore the natural areas we love, expand access to clean energy, and promote sustainable transportation options. Volunteers of all ages stepped up, and young leaders found opportunities to shape a healthy future they’ll one day inherit.
