About this organization
Mission
The mission of the Alliance for the Great Lakes is to conserve and restore the world's largest freshwater resource using policy, education and local efforts, ensuring a healthy Great Lakes and clean water for generations of people and wildlife.
About
Constituent engagement. The Alliance provided more than 20,000 volunteer experiences through our Adopt-a-Beach program. Our beach volunteers removed more than 54,000 pounds of litter from Great Lakes beaches, 90% of which was plastic (or 700,000 individual pieces). Nearly 200 people are now Alliance ambassadors who have received deep training to speak on a variety of Great Lakes issues in their communities. We generated more than 20,000 advocacy actions where individual constituents sent letters and made phone calls to elected officials in support of Great Lakes policy in our three programs.
