Think about your home... think about how it provides the shelter and resources needed by you and your family.

Now think about the way our homes and community are part of a vibrant natural ecosystem that provides the elements essential not only for life, but for economic and social prosperity as well. Everything we own, everything we do and everything we need depends on the quality and abundance of the elements and resources within the system. Like our homes, the environment is the basic shelter so critical to the health, comfort and well being of all living things.

Thousands of people in communities across the province are taking an active role in caring for our environment. With the help of Alberta Ecotrust, they implement exciting and meaningful environmental activities, strategies and programs, which build community momentum and collectively achieve significant results.

What many of us do not realize is the serious gap in funding available to these groups. Government dollars are not there, few foundations provide solid environmental support and corporations can't do it alone.

Alberta Ecotrust brings people together - the people who can and will do the work to protect the environment in our communities and the people who can and will write a cheque to help pay for it.

You can make a significant difference and in our ability to support environmental action at the community level today and in the future.

Our purpose is simple. We help Albertans preserve the environment. ...because it's our home.
