AdkAction Annual Report 2019

Thank you for being a part of AdkAction. Though 2020 has been full of challenges, we are grateful for the opportunity to serve our beloved Adirondack communities with our Emergency Food Packages, Broadband-for-All, and other projects to help alleviate some of the hardships of the global pandemic.

Now, a moment for reflection. Normally, we would share last years’ Annual Report at our 2020 Annual Meeting.  The restrictions on gatherings have led us to make the tough decision to cancel our Annual Meeting celebration this year, so instead, we are sharing a digital version of our 2019 Annual Report with you now.

Though it feels like a lifetime ago, we are proud of the work we accomplished in 2019. In an effort to conserve resources, we will not be sending out a print version of this report. You can view it below and find it on our website at any time.

Thank you to everyone who has supported AdkAction in the past year, we are deeply grateful for your contributions to our collective goals. Cheers to the simpler days of the past and cheers to a brighter future–and all of the hard work we will do to get there.

Sincerely,

Brittany Christenson
Executive Director

Tracking Road Salt to Protect Adirondack Streams

Each winter, road salt helps keep Adirondack roads safe. When the snow melts, that salt can wash into nearby streams and groundwater, where it can persist for decades and harm aquatic life and drinking water supplies. For years, AdkAction has worked with municipalities across the Adirondacks to reduce road salt
