Our board members and staff bring extensive experience and a proven capacity for large-scale impact. Since 2018, your generosity and support for BC Parks Foundation has created lasting change in the landscapes that British Columbians love. Together, we've:
-
Protected beautiful places that boost health, protect wildlife and their habitat, store carbon, help prevent drought and flooding, and provide recreation and cultural benefits.
-
Launched Canada's first National Park Prescription program with healthcare professionals across Canada.
-
Launched the Discover Parks Ambassador program providing youth-led programming and engagement to park visitors in BC's parks.
-
Inspired British Columbians to reach over 30 million observations of nature.
- Launched Learning By Nature with school districts across BC, so that kids can be healthy and improve learning outcomes through increased greenspace on school grounds.
Together, our board members and staff have successfully created and managed companies valued at over $5 billion, held senior leadership roles in government agencies, and played pivotal roles in landmark conservation efforts such as the Great Bear Rainforest Agreement, the Canadian Boreal Forest Agreement, the Wild Salmon Policy, and the BC Climate Leadership Team. Additionally, they’ve led campaigns resulting in the creation of over four million hectares of parks in British Columbia, demonstrating their commitment and expertise in achieving ambitious conservation goals.
