Dear John —
Recently I stopped to talk to these workers in my hometown as they connected homes to new water and sewer lines. They were replacing ancient systems that were close to failure. It reminded me that you don’t have to go far to see how water decisions affect us up close.

Investments in water infrastructure and the policies that run them will matter for generations. With senior reporter Brett Walton on the scene, Circle of Blue is breaking stories about failing infrastructure and the efforts to repair it.
Circle of Blue informs decisions like these with trusted, tenacious, independent reporting. From local PFAS contamination to national water health policy to global water/climate accords, we are the leading non-profit journalism organization covering water exclusively.
Like water, your support makes a difference in your own neighborhood. And right now, it’s three times as powerful.
I hope you’ll join us with your contribution, and share this special match opportunity with your friends, family and neighbors. Wherever they are, water is close to their lives.
