With over 6000 lakes and ponds throughout the state, training volunteers is the most efficient and cost effective way to monitor Maine’s treasured lakes. In the context of unprecedented environmental impacts, contributions support the expansion of LSM’s programs allowing LSM staff to offer more workshops, increasing the number of trained volunteer citizen lake scientists who are collecting critical lake data that helps to monitor the health of Maine’s many lakes. 
There are several options for donating. 
  • Mail donation to: Lake Stewards of Maine, 24 Maple Hill Rd., Auburn, ME 04210
