Protecting Natural Areas on Prince Edward Island for the benefit of Islanders and wildlife, since 1979.
What is a protected Island?
A place for people & wildlife
to flourish
In protecting nature, we are also protecting ourselves.
Nature sustains our quality of life, but it needs a little
help to keep giving and growing.
An ecologically rich
home that gives
We rely on natural areas for clean water, fresh air,
healthy soils, and dense forests.
Their ecosystems absorb carbon and act as natural buffers against oncoming climate impacts – our best defence against climate change.
Your forever
Island
We protect our natural areas in perpetuity so you
and your children can enjoy them for years to come.
The gift of nature to future generations is an epic
tale you can be a part of.
How can I help?
Be A Champion For Nature
We all share a unique connection to nature, and our supporters express it in diverse ways.
They are our Champions of Nature, coming from various backgrounds – from hands-on volunteers to
digital advocates, creative fundraisers, and generous donors.
What kind of Champion for Nature are you?
Are you passionate about hands-on conservation efforts or getting directly involved in nature protection?
Are you interested in supporting nature through financial contributions or potentially donating land for long-term protection?
Are you an artisan or entrepreneur and enjoy using your creativity to raise funds for nature conservation?
Do you love using your voice to raise awareness and advocate for environmental causes in your community?
