What does it mean to care for our waters — and for one another? 💧

Our latest newsletter looks back at the anniversary of Milwaukee’s devastating August flood and the community care that emerged in its aftermath — while asking what we need to do together before the next storm comes.

Also in this issue:
🌊 See how Water School is building knowledge and leadership that participants carry back to their communities.
💙 Look back at We Are Water, where joy, art and a living river brought people together at McKinley Beach.

Throughout it all runs a common thread: our waters connect us and caring for them is a shared responsibility.
