Your donation helps

Three ways your gift protects Orange County.

Native pollinator habitat

Your gift plants milkweed, asters, and native grasses across Orange County — turning lawns into corridors that feed monarchs, bees, and birds from Warwick to Newburgh.

Clean-water monitoring

Donations fund stream-monitoring kits, outfall mapping, and volunteer training on the Quassaick Creek watershed — building the data that protects our Hudson Valley tributaries.

Anti-sprawl advocacy

Every dollar helps OE review warehouse and data-center permits, testify at Town Board hearings, and push back against the speculative development paving over Orange County farmland.

Your Impact

What your gift does in the Hudson Valley.

We're a lean, volunteer-led 501(c)(3). Donations don't pay executive salaries — they fund the actual work of defending Orange County's air, water, and land.

$25

Seeds and signage for one pollinator-corridor yard in the Hudson Valley.

$50

One volunteer stream-monitoring kit for the Quassaick Creek watershed.

$100

One hour of expert technical review on a warehouse or data-center permit filing.

$250

Printed materials and outreach for a public-hearing comment drive.

Support a Hudson Valley environmental nonprofit

Orange Environment, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) charity founded in 1982 to protect the natural character of Orange County, New York and the surrounding Hudson Valley and NY/NJ Highlands. If you live in Newburgh, New Windsor, Warwick, Goshen, Middletown, Cornwall, Chester, Montgomery, Wallkill, or anywhere between the Hudson and Delaware Rivers, this is your local green nonprofit.

Your donation supports on-the-ground work most people never see: reviewing warehouse and data-center permit filings line-by-line, submitting expert testimony at Town Board and Planning Board hearings, mapping outfalls in the Quassaick Creek watershed, giving away native milkweed, and training the next generation of Hudson Valley environmental activists.

If you've been looking for a regional environmental group to give to — one that spends your dollars on advocacy and habitat rather than overhead — this is the place. Donate securely with PayPal in under a minute.
