Sponsorship Program

Metro Water Recovery supports our communities through sponsorships to local and regional nonprofit organizations that align with our mission: to protect the region’s health and environment by cleaning water and recovering resources. 

Metro is the largest water and resource recovery agency in the Rocky Mountain West, serving approximately 2.2 million people in an 817-square-mile area. In partnership with 65 local governments, comprised of municipalities and special districts, we clean millions of gallons of water every day to be suitable for agriculture, aquatic life, recreation, and water supply.
