Both of FoLAR’s Earth Day 2024 events are free and all-ages, but space is limited and registration is going fast! Don’t miss out – sign up today!

Last year, FoLAR introduced our new donation platform which allows you to create your own online fundraiser or fundraising team. Earth Day is the perfect opportunity to craft a unique message sharing what the LA River means to you and help us reach our Earth Day fundraising goal!

In one year, our team of just 14 staff and educators was able to provide education to 7,800+ K-12 students, graduate our first cohort of high school LA River Fellows, remove thousands of gallons of invasive species, top 1.6 million pounds of trash removed from the LA River since the beginning of our Great LA River CleanUp, engage in local environmental advocacy projects like the 100 Acre Partnership, and much more.

By browsing impact levels on our fundraising page, you can see exactly how your fundraising will support our year-round LA River education and stewardship programs.
