Urban Creeks Council UCC View Charity Profile
The mission of the Urban Creeks Council is to preserve, protect, and restore urban streams and their riparian habitats. UCC works with regional and local creek, watershed and conservation organizations, neighborhood groups, minority organizations, environmental restoration professionals, ecologists, agencies and officials to accomplish goals and implement projects related to the shared benefits of natural streams.
Urban Creeks Council UCC Volunteer Information
UCC's current restoration project at Contra Costa Community College in San Pablo needs ongoing planting and invasives management. We are seeking folks who love creeks to participate in this great project, which will restore native habitat to the riparian corridor, especially for native pollinators and birds.
Urban Creeks Council UCC Donation Information
UCC's restoration projects are grant-funded, but we depend on donations and foundation grants for outreach, education, and advocacy activities. Attending hearings to defend creeks and riparian corridors, responding to chloramine spills, meeting with officials to create better watershed management practices and policies- all these activities are necessary for the health of our creeks and watersheds, but there are limited funds to support this work. Make a difference in your neighborhood- help preserve our creeks and natural heritage.
