The Power of Education

Empowering Future Heroes

Education is our strongest weapon in the fight against pollution. By teaching kids and communities about stormwater management, we're equipping the next generation of heroes to take a stand for clean water.


Our K-12 programs, community workshops, and engaging resources make learning fun and impactful.

Together, we can protect our water for generations to come.

The Stormwater Defenders need your help!

Every hero - big or small - can play a role in protecting our waterways from pollution. Whether you're cleaning up your neighborhood, learning about stormwater, or educating others, your actions can make a huge impact.

Commit to the Mission

Every hero starts with a promise. Take the Stormwater Defenders Pledge and commit to making small changes in your daily life that will protect our water.


Download and take the pledge, post a picture of yourself with your signed pledge on The Defenders Facebook page and share your commitment to the  mission.
