Nature needs allies. Your Gift Supports a Greener Future.
Since 1969, SPEC has been reconnecting people to nature through community-powered programs, workshops, and events across Metro Vancouver.
Your donation helps us:
- Connect children and youth to nature through hands-on school garden lessons
- Support elders speaking up for nature and mentoring the next generation
- Bring together people of all ages to reduce waste, conserve energy, and grow food
- Support the circular economy by hosting Repair Cafés that challenge planned obsolescence and build repair skills across generations
🌱 Your gift plants the seeds of change. Will you help grow a more sustainable future in Metro Vancouver?
