At Cook Inletkeeper, we are committed to protecting Alaska’s Cook Inlet watershed and the life it sustains.


About

Cook Inletkeeper is a community-based nonprofit organization formed in 1995 to protect Alaskas Cook Inlet watershed and the life it sustains. Cook Inletkeeper uses a unique blend of advocacy, science, and outreach to give citizens the tools they need to promote and protect clean water and healthy salmon habitat, ensuring intact functional ecosystems and lasting jobs for future generations.

How Pick.Click.Give. makes a difference

The Cook Inlet watershed represents everything people love about Alaska—from scenic mountains, vast wetlands, and flowing glaciers, to abundant salmon streams and coastal waters teeming with wildlife. Because Cook Inlet is the most populated and fastest growing region in Alaska, we face greater strains on the water and salmon resources that define our Alaskan way of life. Cook Inletkeeper's programs works to protect the habitat that sustains our fisheries and supports our economy. Our Electronics Recycling Program has prevented tens of thousands of pounds of toxic waste from entering our landfills on the Kenai Peninsula and polluting our streams. Our science program has collected decades of stream temperature data, revealing how climate change intersects with wild salmon survival. Our outreach and organizing efforts bring communities together, amplify local voices, and build coalitions to protect salmon landscapes and advance local climate solutions. Your support powers this work. Together, we can protect clean water, healthy salmon, and the vibrant communities that call Cook Inlet home—for today and for generations to come.
