The 16th annual Great Blue Benefit fundraiser on June 21, put on by the Alliance for the Great Lakes, raised $170,000 to support the efforts to protect the Great Lakes.
“Water is life for every one of the millions who drink Great Lakes water and depend on it to be clean, safe and affordable,” says Joel Brammeier, the Alliance president
The Alliance for the Great Lakes works to educate and advocate communities about the importance of protecting the Great Lakes, which are essential to the regions they border. With many drinking from them, swimming and enjoying them, the Alliance thanks donors who are helping them protect the lakes.
The event took place at the Columbia Yacht Club in Chicago. For more information, visit greatlakes.org/get-involved/great-blue-benefit/.
