Dear Friends:
SUCCESS! WE REACHED OUR 2024 FUNDRAISING GOAL OF $60,000! THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE SUPPORTED US AND HAPPY 2025!
OUR WORK CONTINUES, AND OUR 2025 CAYUGA LAKE COMMUNITY FUND GOAL WILL BE PUBLISHED SHORTLY. ALL NEW DONATIONS WILL COUNT FOR THE 2025 CAMPAIGN.
During 2024, our Cayuga Lake Community Fund helped DCL provide Floating Classroom cruises, free community cruises and summer internships for 3000+ local students and residents!
Our work doesn’t stop when the snow flies. Through the winter, we’ll be guiding students, and supporting teachers, at 20 local schools as they raise trout and learn about healthy streams- right in their classrooms! During this holiday season, you can support this amazing program by adopting a "Finger Lakes Trout in the Classroom" aquarium at a school in your neighborhood!
- Visit our “Trout in the Classroom” program page to see what schools need aquarium sponsors.
- Return to this page, and select “Adopt a Trout Tank for a Year” to make your $250 donation.
- When you register, please add a message to let us know which tank you want to sponsor.
You’ll get a big thank-you from the class, and an invitation to attend a trout release field trip this coming spring! AND OF COURSE, donations at any level are greatly appreciated!
PLEASE NOTE: Suggested donations are reflective of actual programming costs. However, all contributions made via this page are allocated to DCL's Cayuga Lake Community Fund. This internal Fund provides financial support for education and community access program clients and ensures that our flagship, the M/V Teal, is in top condition.

WHAT IF EVERYONE COULD ENJOY THIS LAKE?
