The Good Guys

Save the Sound

Save the Sound is dedicated to the restoration, protection, and appreciation of Long Island Sound and its watershed through advocacy, education and research.

Save the Sound, is funded by membership contributions, individual and corporate donations, foundations and government grants. The organization was originally founded in 1972 as the Long Island Sound Taskforce and was first affiliated with the Sierra Club, then the Oceanic Society. It has been an independent organization since 1989. The name was changed to Save the Sound, Inc. in 1995 to better express the organization's mission and as a call to action. In September of 2004 Save the Sound merged with Connecticut Fund for the Environment to strengthen its infrastructure and advocacy presence.  Save the Sound is headquartered in South Norwalk , CT.   Programs in education, research, and advocacy are the means through which they strive to accomplish their mission: saving Long Island Sound.
