'Buck-an-Acre"

ILMA LAKES Grant Replacement Challenge: We are issuing a challenge to all our members as well as all other Illinois Lakes and Watershed Stakeholders to help fund the continuing vital activities of this organization! As you may know all sustaining Grants from State agencies have been curtailed and we need to find replacement funding. You Can Help!

Just One Dollar ($1) for every Acre of Lake you represent (or a portion thereof) from our members alone would more than offset the grant loss and sustain our activities.

The challenge has already been met by several representatives of lakes in our membership. You can see their contributions and our progress here.

If you don’t have lake you are affiliated with: adopt a POND, LAKE, STREAM of appropriate size or just pick your own metric to contribute against (i.e. $1 for every lake we treat, $1 for every yard/mile of stream we maintain, $1 for every fish I caught last year – Buck-A-Bite...)

  • ILMA is a 503c organization and your contribution is tax deductible.
  • With 84,000 Lakes and ponds in Illinois this should be a “Buck-a-Body” of water.
  • LET’S FILL THE LOGO! The Grant provided about $15,000 annually.
