Donate today to create beloved public places that help us connect with nature and with each other.
DonateThe struggle for public spaces has never been more important. Without them, our cities are reduced to steel, pavement and smog, occupied by disconnected strangers — and who really wants to live in a city like that? But it doesn’t have to be this way.
At Evergreen, we’re transforming public spaces to bring grey cities to life. Would you be willing to join us?
By supporting our work with a monthly gift, you will be sustaining ongoing affordable and inclusive programming like our Farmers Market, camps and clubs that take place in the Don Valley and free programs like the Skateboarding Drop-In Program.

“After a volunteer shift, I head back to the quarry to walk along the paths winding around the ponds. Back there, you can’t hear the traffic and looking around I’ve realize that nature was always in the city, but it takes organizations like Evergreen to remind us and to help make it better.”
