保护、连接、激励

哈尔顿保护基金会是一个注册的慈善组织,致力于保护我们的自然区域,将我们的社区与自然联系起来,并激励个人和团体创造有意义的变化。

想帮助保护哈尔顿基金会有所作为吗?

When you donate your time or money, you protect environmentally significant areas in our watershed, restore areas that have been ecologically damaged, help wildlife species that are at risk, provide opportunities for the community to connect with nature and create education programs to inspire the next generation. We know that nurturing an appreciation for nature and teaching about environmental issues is a powerful way to overcome the challenges we face today, like climate change, and prepare for the challenges of the future.


With your donations, and with the support of our partners, we recently accomplished the following:

  • Renewed areas for learning and recreation at Mountsberg, including adding a new, accessible boardwalk and connecting dock, upgrading trails and gathering spaces, and enhancing the park’s natural playground.
  • Improved accessibility at Kelso with renovated visitor amenities and the purchase of mobile-accessible mats and all-terrain wheelchairs for guest use.
  • Restored more than 1,950 metres of creek-side habitat, planted over 12,800 native trees and shrubs, and generated 160+ community volunteer hours through “restoration workdays”.
  • Engaged more than 3,600 elementary school students during the Halton Children’s Water Festival and 600+ high school volunteers.
  • Enhanced the gardens at Crawford Lake to support community engagement and to help thousands of visitors learn about Indigenous food sovereignty, heritage seed saving, and the resilience of traditional Indigenous agricultural practices.

Each year, we host a gala fundraiser where community members and organizations come together to raise awareness and funds for specific Conservation Halton initiatives. Our most recent gala was held at Kelso Conservation Area on 6月 13, 2024.  Thanks to the support of our sponsors, donors and guests, the Blue Gala raised over $280,000 for projects that will restore and enhance local creeks, streams and wetlands.

环境教育是培养健康的、有生态意识的公民的一个重要组成部分。通过像哈尔顿儿童水节这样的倡议,以及像 "从头开始 "这样的计划,我们正在努力教育和激励我们的年轻人保存、保护和享受我们的自然环境。我们的Mountsberg猛禽中心为年轻人提供了独特的第一手经验,以提高对安大略省本土猛禽的多样性和它们所面临的挑战的认识。

Each year more than 100,000 visitors come to Crawford Lake to experience the First Nations heritage at the Crawford Lake Village on our sites, and celebrate the region’s unique geological and cultural significance.
