Support Us
Most large projects and programs that SPSSEG undertakes are funded primarily through state and federal grant monies. These funds allow us to do significant, on-the-ground restoration projects, but they come with stringent spending requirements.
The grant applications often require several days of staff time to develop and submit, none of which is reimbursed by the grant. Many grants do not allow for overhead expenses such as rent and electricity bills. These are often the limiting factors to our work, but could be alleviated with donations of unrestricted funds from members.
In an effort to attract new members, we’re offering a membership premium: a SPSSEG logo t-shirt. These organic, 100% cotton shirts feature the SPSSEG logo on the back, and “South Puget Sound Salmon Enhancement Group” printed across the front.
Please consider asking friends and relatives to support SPSSEG. Their contributions will allow us to continue to seek out beneficial projects and the funding to implement them.
As a member of SPSSEG, you, your friends, and your family will be directly supporting local salmon recovery efforts! For every dollar in unrestricted funds that we receive from members and business partners, we are able to leverage hundreds of dollars of grant funding that directly fund habitat restoration projects in the region. Now that’s a sound investment!
