You Belong
to This Place.
Every month, something arrives in your mailbox that connects you to the Great Lakes Basin Region—this water, this land, this fight. Twelve dollars a month. One envelope. Something magical inside.
The Friends of the Lakes Club is not a subscription box. It is a belonging. It is a monthly reminder that you are connected to something ancient and alive. Twenty-one percent of the world's fresh surface water, the lakes, the rivers, the wetlands, the Basin that sustains us all.
Every envelope you receive is made possible by this community. And every dollar of profit goes directly back into the fight to protect this place. This is how we defend the Great Lakes Basin Region—together, every single month.
Inside Your Envelope
Every month we pack something of this place into an envelope and send it to you. Words and images that connect you to the Great Lakes Basin Region and the people who call it home.
Of Profits Support Our Rights of the Lakes Initiative
Every dollar of profit from the Friends of the Lakes Club goes directly into our Rights of the Lakes Great Lakes Basin Initiative—the fight to give the lakes, rivers, and watersheds of this region the legal standing they deserve. Your envelope helps fund the movement.
