We've been challenged to raise $30,000 during Giving Tuesday, in support of our Rock Creek Confluence Gateway Initiative. Can you help us meet our match?

For the past 11 years, Five Valleys has restored and stewarded our Rock Creek Confluence property near Clinton. Today, the property is a vibrant outdoor classroom that is helping to inspire and educate the next generation of land stewards and connect our community to our landscape.

The Rock Creek Confluence Gateway Initiative builds on our momentum at the Confluence, focusing our efforts to create a community open space that is welcoming and accessible to all. The aims of the Confluence Gateway Initiative are to: 

• Expand and enhance the property's accessible trail network for people of all abilities.
• Build an accessible wetland viewing platform.
• Share the story of the Confluence through interpretive signs and solar audio posts.
• Preserve historic Pete's Cabin for educational uses.

You can support this work by making a donation on GivingTuesday, November 28th. Through a matching challenge provided by Hone Architects + Builders, Endurance Physio, and generous community supporters, your gift will be DOUBLED!

Follow our progress as we try to "complete the loop" by following us on Instagram and Facebook!

Evening update:

We did it! With your incredible support we not only met, but exceeded, our $30,000 Giving Tuesday goal! It's YOU, our community, who make it all possible. We look forward to sharing how your support is advancing equitable public access at the Confluence.

To everyone who participated, thank you. And big thanks to Hone Architects + Builders, Endurance Physio, and our community supporters for providing our matching challenge!
