In 2025, your support helped drive historic progress for wild fish—from Washington’s permanent ban on commercial net-pen aquaculture, to the launch of the lower Columbia River’s first commercial fish trap fishery in nearly a century, to bold litigation holding the federal government accountable for failing to protect endangered salmon and Southern Resident killer whales. Together, these wins reflect decades of science-based advocacy, legal action, and on-the-ground work coming together to create real change.
As we head into 2026, we’re building on this momentum by launching our most ambitious campaign to date—Let Our Salmon Come Home—an international, coastwide campaign to confront one of the biggest remaining barriers to wild salmon recovery.
Across the West Coast, too many wild salmon are still killed in ocean fisheries before they can return home, undermining recovery, depriving endangered orcas of prey, and weakening coastal communities. With the 2028 Pacific Salmon Treaty negotiations approaching, the decisions made now will shape the future of salmon, orcas, and fishing communities for the next decade.
Your generosity supports Wild Fish Conservancy’s work—helping launch this new campaign and continuing the science-based advocacy, legal action, and on-the-ground efforts that protect wild fish and the ecosystems and communities that depend on them.
