Clean Water Fund is proud to announce that we will once again be participating in 401Gives, Rhode Island’s day of nonprofit giving powered by United Way of Rhode Island. Last year, thousands of donors collectively gave over $3.1 million to nonprofits across our state! This year, the United Way is working hard to make April 1, 2023 the biggest 401Gives ever. So big, that it can not be contained by one day - 401Gives will be an entire weekend event this year!
Clean Water Fund is raising money to educate the public about waste reduction, plastic pollution, and toxic chemicals. Your contributions fund initiatives such as: hosting legislators on a tour of the Rhode Island Materials Recycling Facility to learn about RI’s recycling rate, educating consumers about avoiding toxic chemicals like PFAS in everyday products, and empowering residents with information and support to reach out to their elected officials about protecting our waterways.
Like many of our friends and allies in the Rhode Island non-profit community, we are a grassroots organization supported by people power. You can help us to get ready for 401Gives!

On the weekend of April 1-2, 2023, whether you contribute a large gift to Clean Water Fund or spread the love between many organizations (some of our staff will be supporting rescue mutts!), we hope you will participate in 401Gives, an event that showcases the generous spirit of the community here in L’il Rhody.
