Mail is down, but our conservation work continues
Keep conservation going: Easy ways to give during the Canada Post Strike.
As you may have heard, Canada Post workers are currently on strike. While it’s unclear how long this disruption will last, we know it will affect mail services across the country, delaying the generous donations that power Raincoast’s vital, science-based conservation efforts.
If you are planning to donate by mail, we invite you to consider making a secure online donation or contacting us directly to contribute by phone. Our team is here to assist you and help ensure your support reaches us without delay.
While mail service is disrupted, we can continue to ensure you get your official tax receipts in a timely manner.
For those who have recently mailed a donation—thank you! While the strike may slow down processing and acknowledgment, please know that your gift is deeply valued. Your contributions enable Raincoast to further the protection of the lands, water, and wildlife of the BC coast and advance science-driven solutions to conservation challenges.
Benefits of donating online or over the phone:
- Quick and efficient giving: Your gift is processed in real-time, and your tax receipt is emailed to you without delay.
- Safe and straightforward: Make your donation anytime with our secure, 24/7 online platform.
- Protect what matters (champion conservation): Help fund essential efforts to protect wildlife, at-risk ecosystems, and oppose environmental threats.
Call us to make a secure donation over the phone at 250-655-1229, or donate online. You can also reach out to our Development Coordinator, Marlie Temple, at marlie [at] raincoast [dot] org.
Your support furthers our conservation impact, and we couldn’t do this critical work without you. We are so grateful for your commitment to supporting our efforts.
You can help
Raincoast’s in-house scientists, collaborating graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and professors make us unique among conservation groups. We work with First Nations, academic institutions, government, and other NGOs to build support and inform decisions that protect aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, and the wildlife that depend on them. We conduct ethically applied, process-oriented, and hypothesis-driven research that has immediate and relevant utility for conservation deliberations and the collective body of scientific knowledge.
We investigate to understand coastal species and processes. We inform by bringing science to decision-makers and communities. We inspire action to protect wildlife and wildlife habitats.
