We are continually humbled by your support through becoming members, spreading the word about Adirondack brook trout and volunteering in the field as citizen scientists.

Giving Tuesday is a day where people, organizations and businesses are encouraged to give back to causes they care about. I am sure this is one of many post you’ll see asking for donations.

There are so many wonderful organizations and groups out there doing important work, and they need support more now than ever. Whether it be Trout Power or another organization, we encourage you to consider donating to a cause you believe in.

If you are unable to donate since you just spent money on black friday, small business saturday, and cyber monday (did we miss one?), then support brook trout by adding to our Giving Tuesday post with an awesome brookie photo, or write a favorite fish story. There are plenty of ways to support brook trout, and outreach is one!

If you would like to donate to Trout Power today, or some other time, you can do so via the donate tab on our website.

As always, thank you!
