Thank you for taking the time to come to my Clearwater Ambassador page.  

I joined the Board of Directors to support its mission of preserving and protecting the Hudson River, its tributaries and related bodies of water.  Clearwater's goal is to ensure the Hudson has a sustainable, healthy future.  It accomplishes this with an array of environmental awareness and education programs -- including educational sailing programs on Pete Seeger's legendary sloop Clearwater -- and collaboration with an array of advocates and supporters of the local environmental movement from New York Bay to Albany.

Our local environment is incredibly important to me for some of the following reasons:  

• I grew up in Croton-on-Hudson, and regularly walk along its beautiful banks with family and friends
• Todd and I married at the river's edge in Cold Spring
• My business office is in Peekskill, a nearby Hudson river town 

To be an ambassador for Clearwater is a privilege.  

In the coming year, I would like to raise as much money as I can to support Clearwater's vital programming.  A couple of items of immediate importance include hiring a Development Director and maintaining the Sloop.  

Todd and I have made a financial commitment, and I hope you will join us to ensure that the Hudson's legacy of beauty, hope and community are sustained.

Please Donate whatever you can today and together we can help change the future!  

I appreciate your support; I will not forget it!
