Lewis Creek Watershed Association, founded in 1995, is a small nonprofit in the Environment sector that reported $161K in total revenue in fiscal year 2022. Revenue fell 30% from the prior year — a significant decline worth monitoring.

Mission

Improving Lewis Creek and its watershed. Our area of work includes the middle Lake Champlain Valley and the Lewis Creek, LaPlatte, Thorp/Kimball/Holmes, and McCabe's watersheds. We focus on the health of Lake Champlain and its basin feeder streams, which send the bulk (approx. 80%) of phosphorus pollution to the lake when streams are experiencing their more frequent high flow events.
