What Will Your Legacy Be?

Most of us have fished in streams and rivers made better by the hard work and generosity of those who have come before us. Since 1959, Trout Unlimited members have been helping conserve, restore, and reconnect streams and rivers in their backyards and across the country. Many have extended that dedication into the future with a gift in their will or trust, or by beneficiary designation.

Hear from some of our Stream Guardians about why they made a gift in their will or estate plan.

If you have made such a gift, Trout Unlimited would like to recognize your generosity and foresight by welcoming you to the Stream Guardian Society. Stream Guardians are a diverse group of members who share a passion for cold, clean rivers and streams and the trout and salmon that live in them. Whether drawn by fishing, conservation, or often both, their legacy ensures the future health and integrity of our coldwater fishing habitats.

To recognize your support as a Stream Guardian, you will receive:

  • Invitations to exclusive annual Stream Guardian Society fishing trips at select lodges around the country.
  • A commemorative Stream Guardian Society branded gift that we hope you will enjoy for years to come.
  • Invitations to private online events showcasing TU's research, conservation initiatives, and partnerships.
  • Most importantly, you'll be ensuring healthier waters and fish populations for generations to come.
