Save the Boundary Waters
Thank you GTMD

thank you

Thanks to the incredible generosity of Boundary Waters defenders, we raised over $593,000 from 2,325 donors for Give to the Max Day this year! Every single gift, from $5 to $5,000, helped fuel our grassroots movement to protect the Boundary Waters.

Together, we’re stronger as we head into 2025, ready to face the major legal and legislative battles needed to safeguard the Boundary Waters. Your donations power every part of this fight—from legal action to scientific research to public advocacy. Thank you. 

Whether you gave early, shared our posts to spread the word, or kept the momentum going hour by hour, we couldn’t have done this without incredible Wilderness advocates!

Didn't get a chance to donate for Give to the Max Day? You didn't miss your opportunity: we recently launched The Boundary Waters Defense Fund - and you are invited to join as an inaugural member.

As threats to the Boundary Waters continue to escalate, we need to ensure that we’re ready to meet every challenge without hesitation.

This innovative new fund is dedicated to defending America’s most visited Wilderness - giving us the resources to respond swiftly and strategically to emerging threats in 2025 and beyond.

The stakes have never been higher: the incoming presidential administration has promised to reverse current protections. Now, more than ever, we need a powerful line of defense to meet these threats head-on.

The Boundary Waters Defense Fund supports critical legal, legislative, advocacy, and grassroots efforts to protect the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in the coming years. It allows us to escalate strategic legal challenges, rally public support, and push for protections at the local, state, and federal levels.
