Clean Up the River Environment

About us

We do this because we believe that robust human communities can only be sustained by healthy ecosystems, and robust natural environments can only be regained through vigorous stewardship.
Clean Up the River Environment (CURE) is a rural, nonprofit organization made up of people who care about the well-being of their neighbors, the health of the land and water, and the legacy we leave for future generations.
Founded in 1992, CURE is an organization long rooted in the movement for rural social justice. Widely known as a community-based, grassroots leader, CURE shares what it knows and draws on the expertise of others through regional and nation-wide network collaborations.
