COLDWATER CONSERVATION FUND PROJECTS
Since 2005, there have been approved CCFund project applications totalling $244,877.62. Those dollars have been matched by other sources with $1,095,823.56, and with in-kind donations of $255,455.50 to achieve total project values of $1,596,156.68. We are proud of the work the Coldwater Conservation Fund is making possible. And, we are proud of our members who are seeing the needs in their areas, making thoughtful, science-based applications to the CCFund, and carefully carrying out restorative work and research on behalf of trout and their environment.
