Amy Souers Kober
Senior Director of Communications
I’m excited to officially announce that American Rivers is the recipient of a 2010 Conservation Grant from Orvis. Through matching donations from its customers, Orvis has pledged up to $120,000 to help with restoration projects on California’s Sacramento River and the Yellow Breeches watershed in Pennsylvania’s Susquehanna River basin. Orvis customers will be asked to support the restoration efforts directly through its catalogue and website.
