Fund the Fight
PULSE of the Great Lakes is independent journalism rooted in the Great Lakes Basin—the water, the people, the ecosystems, and the fight to protect all three. We publish the stories no one else is telling: from our Rights of the Lakes Rights of Nature movement to Indigenous Voices, from housing crisis to Great Lakes Basin history. And then we cannot forget the radical joy of loving where you live.
When you make a purchase or donate, you're not just supporting a magazine. You're keeping this work alive—and making sure the Great Lakes have a voice that's as fierce and deep as the water themselves.

Twenty-one percent of the world's fresh surface water sits in the Great Lakes Basin Region, and every month, we pack a piece of it into an envelope and send it to your door. A story about this place. An original Postcard from a Friend. Original art from a Great Lakes Basin artist. A curated Great Lakes Basin sticker. A monthly surprise.
100% of profits support our Great Lakes Basin Initiative. You can learn more about this by reading our Rights of the Lakes Blueprint. Monthly mailings begin August 15.
