Celebrating 20 Years of Clean Water and Community Impact
For 20 years Santa Barbara Channelkeeper has served our community as a
vigilant watchdog and tenacious advocate for the Santa Barbara Channel and
its watersheds. We’ve successfully championed stronger policies to better
protect our water resources; stopped scores of illegal discharges into the
Santa Barbara Channel and its tributaries; removed tons of trash from local
beaches and creeks; collected and leveraged much-needed scientific data on
the health of our streams, beaches, and Channel; engaged 4,500 volunteers in
our programs; provided environmental education and exploration for 36,000
youth; and so much more.
None of these achievements would have been possible without the generous
support of our community and the many partners we’ve worked with over the
years. We are deeply grateful, honored, and uplifted by the support and trust
our community has invested in Channelkeeper over the past two decades to help
us become such a powerful and effective force for clean water.
Channelkeeper will be celebrating our 20th anniversary throughout 2020, and I
invite you to join the party, because we’ll also be celebrating you! Through
a series of fun initiatives and events, we will reflect back on our clean
water victories over the past two decades, provide opportunities for our
community to explore and connect with the waterways we love and work so hard
to protect, and honor and appreciate those who have helped us grow and
succeed along the way.
For a sneak peek at what’s to come, in the next few weeks we’ll be unveiling
a beautiful new website, launching a super fun new community engagement
initiative called the Channelkeeper Challenge, and rolling out the first of a
series of multi-media profiles recognizing and appreciating twenty
Channelkeeper Heroes who have supported our organization and work over the
past 20 years.
We’re also thrilled to welcome Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. back as the keynote
speaker at our 20th Annual Blue Water Ball on March 14, 2020. Mr. Kennedy was
here to officially inaugurate Channelkeeper at our very first Blue Water Ball
in 2000, and his vision, dedication, and leadership has since propelled the
creation of more than 300 other grassroots Waterkeeper organizations on six
continents, collectively patrolling and protecting 2.7 million square miles
of watersheds and defending people’s fundamental right to clean water across
the globe. You will not want to miss this momentous celebration, so get your
tickets here today, and stay tuned for other ways to join in the fun of
Channelkeeper’s year-long celebration of making waves for two decades!
Cheers!
