    Unsung Caretaker

Caretakers of Minnesota are those taking action, big or small, to care for the natural places we all share. Their efforts help Minnesota thrive, and they deserve to be seen and celebrated.

Winners of the Caretakers of Minnesota award will receive $250 to apply to their volunteer work and be recognized at an Upstream event in October 2024. Our panel of judges will select 10 individuals, 3 organizations and one community to recognize as our inaugural Caretakers of Minnesota. Nominate your neighbor, friend, co-worker, organization or community and help inspire more Minnesotans to care for this place we share and love.
