McKenzie River Trust
The McKenzie River Trust is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) land trust that
actively works to conserve land by acquiring land through donation,
purchase or by holding a conservation easement. The Trust also works
to be good stewards of owned land and conservation easements by
implementing and managing restoration projects.
The McKenzie River Trust partners with willing private landowners in Lane and Douglas counties to protect special lands forever. Oregonians have long cared about land and water; the natural systems that sustain us with clean drinking water, rich soils to grow food and provide habitat for the species that live in the McKenzie and Willamette Basins. The natural beauty of these special places also provides a source of inspiration in an increasingly urban environment. The Trust works to ensure that these natural areas, which are essential for the health of our communities exist for future generations.
Treat Yourself and Support the Trust
Gervais salon and day spa is sponsoring "Clean Water Wednesdays" all through the month of April. Through Gervais's "Every Drop Counts" campaign, proceeds from a menu of mini-experiences and a raffle are split between McKenzie River Trust and Columbia River Keepers in an effort to help protect and promote clean water in our region.
Mini-experiences include mini facials, make-up application, Caribbean hand therapy treatments and hair conditioning treatments. A Clean Water Raffle will also be held. Tickets are $1 and can be purchased anytime. The prize is a Caribbean Therapy Body Treatment and gift package.
Visit Gervais's website for locations, contact information and hours.
