For 25 years, UpstreamPgh has been working to make our city’s water cleaner and healthier.

We focus on protecting nature, teaching our neighbors, reducing the negative impacts of stormwater runoff, and speaking up for clean water. We work “upstream”—tackling problems at their source—so that our communities can thrive.

Our strength comes from connection. Just like people, nature, and neighborhoods are tied together, our three programs—Engage, Plan/Build, and Advocate—work as one. By bringing together communities, governments, and millions in funding, we make real change happen. From reducing sewage overflows to replacing dangerous lead pipes, our work leaves a lasting mark.
