Early giving opens November 1! Join us anytime from November 1–21 by giving to Upstream this giving season and help show that stewardship creates unity.

What do a child skipping rocks in Duluth, a farmer in Fergus Falls, and a family hiking in the Twin Cities have in common? A love for Minnesota’s natural places.

On Give to the Max Day, love for our natural places is what unites us. At Upstream, we believe stewardship, caring for our land, water, and seasons, is one of the most powerful tools we have to bring people together.

When you give to Upstream, you are supporting:

• Hands-on stewardship projects that restore the beauty of Minnesota’s landscapes. 
• Community dialogues that help Minnesotans find common ground. 
• Inspiring stories of everyday caretakers making a difference. 

These efforts matter because when we care together, we build trust. When we come together for something larger than ourselves, we start to see each other differently, not as opponents, but as neighbors with a shared home worth protecting.

From the Mississippi headwaters to the southern blufflands, we are tied together by the places we love.

This Give to the Max Day, you can be part of a movement that proves unity is possible through stewardship. Your gift bridges divides and cares for the natural places we all hold dear.

Donate today and show the next generation that care creates unity.
