Planned Giving Program

The work to secure a just future for people and the planet is multigenerational. Planned giving can provide the resources to strengthen and carry on that work.

We are honoured that some of our donors have already trusted us to steward their resources after their lifetime to protect critical ecosystems and continue the fight for mining justice for generations to come. Thank you for your contribution to the long term sustainability of MiningWatch Canada.

Planned giving can take a few different forms, based on your wishes. A gift of any size can have a significant impact on the long-term sustainability of MiningWatch’s work.
