Restricted Donation
 
We are excited to continue with our 2nd year of ELIA's major, multi-year initiative to positively impact the quality of Eagle Lake.  Known as the Eagle Lake Protection Program, this process will operate much like a healthcare model.  The first step, gathering data, is now underway through our partnership with Dr. Marcel Dijkstra and the Environmental Research and Innovation Center (ERIC) at UW Oshkosh.  Board members and concerned community members made excellent progress last year with an expanded water testing and analysis program.
 
 
Our board of directors has adopted this vision statement for our new endeavor:
 
“The goal of the Eagle Lake Protection Program is to make fundamental changes to Eagle Lake and its watershed to enhance the enjoyment of the lake for current and future generations.”
 
We urge everyone in the lake community to join us in positively impacting the quality of Eagle Lake, and we thank you for considering this special donation.

What is a restricted donation?
 
Restricted donations are monies set aside for a particular purpose as a result of designated giving.  They are permanently restricted to that purpose and cannot be used for other expenses of the nonprofit.  By contrast, unrestricted funds (such as membership dues) may be used for any legal purpose appropriate to the organization.
 
 
All donations received through this fundraising campaign will be kept in a separate account, to be used only for expenses incurred in the Eagle Lake Protection Program.
