Donate today to create beloved public places that help us connect with nature and with each other.
DonateBuilding great public places is what we do every day — and that work is never done alone. We work with community builders across sectors to solve some of the most pressing issues cities face: climate change, housing affordability, and access to nature and public spaces.
Evergreen is a national non-profit transforming public spaces in our cities to build a healthier future for people and our planet.
We know that our public spaces need a change and transforming them takes a community of action. We want you to be part of that community.
We gathered leaders in kids programming from Evergreen, Outward Bound Canada and the Pine Project to find out how connecting with the natural world helps youth build leadership, problem-solving skills and more.
