Within McKnight’s Mississippi River program, River Action received a general operating grant in support of their work to improve the health of the Mississippi River and its surrounding land. McKnight’s Mississippi River program supports efforts to restore and protect floodplains and wetlands in the 10-state Mississippi River corridor, and the reduction of agricultural pollution in four states along the northern half of the river, focusing on farmland and operations with high levels of nitrogen and phosphorous runoff.
