Chilliwack Vedder River Cleanup Society
Chilliwack Vedder River Cleanup Society was founded in 2002 by anglers, birdwatchers, conservationists, biologists and concerned local residents. CVRCS is a nonprofit organization that unites individuals who are concerned about the increasing amount of garbage being left along the Chilliwack/Vedder River.
The society has two major objectives:
By using an "Adopt a River" model, to organize groups and individual volunteers who wish to clean up the river.
To educate the public on the value of the river and the need to keep it clean.
