Pollution from stormwater runoff and leaking sewer lines continues to increase the amount of harmful bacteria in the water, and urban streams within Asheville City limits have some of the worst water quality ratings in the state.

It doesn't have to be this way! Please donate to our Spring Appeal in support of a healthier French Broad River. 

With guidance from the Central Asheville Watershed Restoration Plan created by RiverLink, and support from you, our dedicated river community, we can come together to fix our aging infrastructure, remove litter and debris from the banks of our rivers and streams, and ensure that our waterways are clean and protected for many generations to come.
