Comprehensive Campaign 2020 – 2022

Great Rivers Habitat Alliance is excited to be celebrating our 20th anniversary of protecting the Confluence floodplain this year. To inaugurate our 20th anniversary, GRHA is instituting our first comprehensive fundraising campaign to expand the scope and mission of our efforts. We hope that you will help us grow our mission by supporting it.

We began 2020 with a great victory in Maryland Heights when their $151 million plan to destroy the floodplain was rejected. GRHA led the fight against this terrible plan. The other big news is that St. Louis County is now considering a bill to institute tougher floodplain regulations for much of the county. GRHA has strongly supported this policy and is doing all that we can to educate officials as to why and how this will benefit our region.

This is a critical time for Missourians who were hurt by flooding around our state.

As our region continues to address the devastation caused by the 2019 flooding, it is imperative that our leaders do not repeat the mistakes of the past. Calls to address the flood disaster by massive spending on new levees will make future floods worse, not better, and continued floodplain development proposals are going in the exactly wrong direction.

How You Can Help?

If you want to preserve the habitat and beauty of our great river floodplains and wetlands, we hope you will make a commitment to help us grow our mission by supporting our campaign.

Every dollar that you pledge will go directly toward supporting our comprehensive campaign. Please review the campaign brochure and pledge form on this website and consider making a tax- deductible commitment for the next three years. I would be pleased to talk with you if you have any questions regarding the campaign and our work. Please do not hesitate to call me at (314) 918-1007, or e-mail me at dstokes@grha.org.

Thank you for your continued support of the mission of Great Rivers Habitat Alliance.

For the Confluence,

David Stokes
