Tara's Fundraiser for the LRCA

For nearly 40 years, the Lackawanna River Conservation Association (LRCA) has been leading the protection and restoration of the Lackawanna River Watershed to advance clean water, healthy ecosystems, and strong communities. The LRCA's mission spans the entire length of the Lackawanna River Watershed which starts in Union Dale, flows down through Carbondale, through Scranton, past Old Forge, and ends in Duryea where it drains into the North Branch of the Susquehanna River. The Lackawanna River Watershed touches Susquehanna, Wayne, Lackawanna, and Luzerne Counties.

Your support for our nonprofit also aids the work of our land trust affiliate, the Lackawanna Valley Conservancy (LVC). The mission of the LVC is to promote the conservation and preservation of natural, scenic, historical, and cultural resources in the Lackawanna River Watershed and nearby areas of Northeast Pennsylvania.  

As a nonprofit and non-political organization, the LRCA has been promoting the river and its watershed through Watershed Management Programs, educational outreach, community events, consensus building and partnerships.  The LRCA works proactively with other nonprofit organizations, community groups, and public agencies to plan and promote projects and fundraising events that will enhance the Lackawanna River Watershed and support local communities.

The LRCA's Vision: A healthy, resilient Lackawanna River Watershed where ecosystems and communities thrive together.
