Make an Impact with your PFD

Rather than participating in Pick.Click.Give., which charges a 7% coordination fee, we’re asking you to donate directly from your PFD this year. In the past, that fee has redirected over $14,000 away from our efforts to protect Cook Inlet | Tikahtnu.

Make an Impact with your PFD

— Loren Barrett

If you’ve already applied for your 2024 Permanent Fund Dividend (PFD), you might have noticed that Cook Inletkeeper is missing from the list of Pick.Click.Give. (PCG) organizations this year. We’re doing things a bit differently for 2024 to ensure your donations have the greatest possible impact.

Rather than participating in PCG, which charges a 7% coordination fee, we’re asking you to donate directly from your PFD this year. In the past, that fee has redirected over $14,000 away from our efforts to protect Cook Inlet | Tikahtnu. By donating directly, every cent of your contribution will support the vital work you care about.

We deeply appreciate all those who have given through PCG in previous years. It’s been an excellent way to connect with new supporters and make giving easy. However, this change means that your donations will now go even further in supporting the programs and initiatives you value.

To make it easy to remember, we’ll send out a reminder when the PFD direct deposit is set to arrive- though there is no reason to delay, you can always donate today by clicking the button below and know you’ve done your part to support the further protection of Cook Inlet.

With your continued support, we can keep up our vital work—whether it’s opposing the Pebble and Donlin Mine projects, protecting Critical Habitat Areas, gathering crucial data on salmon habitats, or fostering sustainable local food systems. We stand by the belief that policies protecting our home should be driven by science, data, and humanity.

Thank you for standing with us in this shared mission. We can achieve so much more together.

For 2024, you can donate directly at inletkeeper.org/donate or by mail at 3734 Ben Walters Ln., Homer, AK 99603.

A heartfelt thanks from all of us—staff, volunteers, supporters, and everyone who values the clean water and healthy habitats of Cook Inlet.

Our Modern Lives Demand Energy – So We Must Demand Energy We Can Live With

We now have an opportunity that the concerned citizens of 30 years ago could only have hoped for. With technology finally ready to realize the massive renewable energy opportunities in our wind, sun, and small hydro prospects (with tidal and geothermal technologies developing rapidly), we can reduce our dependence on fossil fuels for our energy needs. Our economic interest also aligns with drastically reducing gas consumption in the very near future and creating the next generation of local energy jobs.

Yet, even in this deep shadow, a spark of light persists—a promise of the returning sun, of renewed growth and energy. This year, as we mark the solstice, Cook Inletkeeper also celebrates another kind of light: the enduring impact of the work we have been able to do with and because of YOU over the past decade in the Central Peninsula.
