Ohio River Foundation was able to raise more than $21,000 at its annual Wild & Scenic Film Festival on Friday, April 19 at the Woodward Theater. The Festival sold out with 150 people in attendance. Proceeds from the event will support ORF’s exciting education, restoration, and advocacy programs that fulfill its mission to protect and improve the water quality in the Ohio River Watershed, a source of drinking water to millions of people.
Ohio River Foundation (ORF) has received almost $100,000 in funding for its Invasive Species Removal Strike Force (ISRSF) activities in Greater Cincinnati. Corporate volunteers from throughout Greater Cincinnati participate in hands-on restoration work to remove invasive species and, in some cases, plant native trees in removal areas. Funding for this program is provided in part by The Duke Energy Foundation, L.L. Nippert Charitable Foundation, and The H.B., E.W., and F.R. Luther Charitable Foundation, Fifth Third Bank, N.A., Trustee.
