The Non-profit being Spotlighted for October and November is the Spokane Riverkeeper, that works to keep the Spokane River clean and healthy.  The Spokane Riverkeeper: 1) Runs a litter pick-up program that removes thousands of pounds of garbage from the edges of the Spokane River per year. 2) Advocates for the protection and health of your Spokane River by using the laws and policies – like the Clean Water Act – that exist to protect our natural environment to provide a voice for your river. 3) Runs a science program that educates youth and assesses the health and cleanliness of the water and ecology in your Spokane River.
