Donate to Haw River Assembly

  • The Swim Guide program allows us to monitor for E.Coli bacteria at several public swimming accesses in the Haw River basin. Your donation will allow us to reimburse mileage and lab equipment.

  • Your donations help us in purchasing new monitoring equipment and supporting teams needs so we can better measure local water quality.

  • The Haw River Learning Celebration is a field trip to the Haw River for fourth graders each fall.  Since we began the program in 1990, over 48,000 students have participated.  Schools attend one of our three locations in Chatham, Alamance and Rockingham counties and spend a day doing activities along the river, enjoying a picnic lunch and concert together, and a special puppet show.

    Your donation allows us to keep the costs of the program as low as possible. It helps make it feasible for us to charge only $3 per child, and we never turn down a child for inability to pay.  You can donate online using the Paypal button below (Paypal Account not required), or can you mail a check payable to HRA with memo line Learning Celebration to PO Box 187 Bynum, NC 27228. Thank you!
