WAYS TO DONATE

Spider Chain of Lakes Association (SCLA) offers two ways for you to donate.

1. Preserve & Protect Annual Fund:  

This fund supports SCLA's long-term mission and emergency needs. Two-thirds of your donation is allocated to the endowment, which funds core programs, and one-third goes to an emergency reserve for unexpected emergency expenses to combat invasive species.

2. FISH MEMBER GIFTS: 
If you MAKE a Fish Member Gift BELOW, PLEASE THEN GO TO THE MEMBERSHIP Renewal PAGE & RENEW. 

Fish Member Gifts are directed to fund operations such as:

  • AIS Prevention: This includes boat inspectors at public landings to prevent invasive species
  • Education: Informing lake residents and children about conservation
  • Water Quality & Safety: Buoy management, water testing, and maintaining healthy fish habitats
  • Partnerships: Collaborating with organizations like WisconsinLakes.org and the WDNR
Fish Member Gifts have tiered donation levels, ranging from "Bluegill" ($125) to "World Record Musky" ($3,000). Our goal is 100% member participation in Fish Member Gifts to expand our work in protecting the lakes.

Our Challenge:
SCLA previously relied on government grants, which are now less available. To continue our vital work protecting the Spider Chain of Lakes, we need your support through annual donations of Fish Member Gifts.
