Your gift goes further than you think it will.
We’ve seen what happens when people chip in a little each month. Suddenly the grant committee leans in. The next phase becomes real. And folks start saying, “We did this.” Not because one person gave big—but because a bunch of us gave what we could, showed up at BBQs, pitched in at cleanups, and kept the faith.
That’s the magic of small towns and big hearts—turning pie sales and $5 gifts into miles of trail.

Meet Some of Our Trailblazers
Jennifer Devlin wanted to give somewhere she could see the difference. After working in international nonprofits, she knew how powerful steady support could be—especially when it stayed local.
Her monthly donation to WRTO helps build the trail and give back to the community she still calls home.
Darcy (BHS Class of '84) donates to WRTO because she love our Driftless Area. She said "Our Wisconsin River Valley is so unique and beautiful and we need to share this with others. The Trails are a scenic way to experience this beauty."
Fred believed in the trail before there was gravel, donated monthly, and attended our events. Now, after his passing, his family is carrying on his legacy.
