To combat the harmful effects of PFAS, we must:

  • Recruit volunteers in key communities such as Unionville and Fairgrove to get the word out about this risk to our community.
  • Raise funds to continue testing important water sources like Cat Lake and Murphy Lake.
  • Raise awareness of potential PFAS contamination in Tuscola County waterways.
