create a protected area where wildlife can thrive

For at-risk species to recover, they need safe spaces to live, breed and roam. This gift supports efforts to create new protected areas on land and at sea where they can take refuge.

You'll also be helping us push for strong conservation standards in protected places. This looks like slowing ship speeds to prevent deadly strikes involving endangered North Atlantic right whales, saying no to mining in sensitive caribou calving grounds and lowering the impact of industrial activities that can disrupt or harm wildlife.

Plus, the vast majority of Canada's carbon-rich habitats have not yet been protected. So, when you make space for species to recover, you're also helping fight climate change.
