Thanks to donors, volunteers, and partner support, accomplishing vital work has made the Edmonton and Area Land Trust stronger than ever — which means right now is the perfect time to build this momentum to a point of breakthrough and beyond.

Much of this excitement comes with EALT being awarded a $1.5 million Environment and Climate Change Canada Nature Smart Climate Solutions grant. Lending our strength to land trust and Indigenous-led conservation efforts coast to coast, EALT is part of something bigger. With this grant, we’re taking transformative action and furthering Canada's effort to overcome climate change and biodiversity loss.

EALT now has a tremendous opportunity to protect more land — not only with the grant, but also with landowners, partners, and amazing donors, like those who inspired JBJ McDonald Conservation Land. But, successful land conservation is more than land securement. Stewardship is the other half of the equation, and is why we’ve set another ambitious goal:

Raising funds will help us steward the lands we all work so hard to secure — restoring forests, planting shrubs, enhancing nesting habitat, and monitoring changes in the environment. It’s our local way of creating global impact; making our difference in the fight against climate change and biodiversity loss.

After all, stewardship is a forever commitment. Together, we’re capable of so much more.
