Patagonia recently announced a gift of $20,000 to the Save Our Wild Salmon Coalition in recognition of their 20 years uniting people for salmon, rivers, and jobs.

From Save Our Wild Salmon:

For 14 years, Patagonia, its stores and its people have supported our work to save that wild salmon and steelhead that Northwest communities and watersheds depend on - with mobilization, publicity, creative design, product donations, event sponsorship, training, contact with three administrations, seven Congresses, and seven governors - as well as linking us into their own conservation initiatives and championing us to fellow businesses.  And funding,usually at the times we most needed it.

Save Our Wild Salmon executive director Pat Ford thanks Patagonia for their many years of support in this Cleanest Line post.

Patagonia also recently announced a $10,000 grant for the Wild Steelhead Coalition in recognition of their efforts to restore the return of wild steelhead to the rivers of the Pacific Northwest.
