NALT launches PROJECT NALT

 

After 15 years of carrying out a wide range of projects related to land protection and stewardship, NALT is taking stock of its own wellbeing.

 

With provincial and federal funding sources drying up, the NALT board is launching PROJECT NALT – a membership and fundraising drive to secure ongoing funding to support the organization’s operations over the long term.

APPEAL FOR THE RETURN OF GAMING FUNDS

 Last fall NALT learned that we won’t be receiving any of the $35,000 in BC Gaming Direct Access funding we requested.
That decision was reconfirmed this spring when the BC government announced environmental organizations are again being left out of the 2010/11 application process.

 

We’re fighting back with an appeal for the return of those funds. You can either sign the appeal at the NALT Stewardship Centre at 8-140 Wallace Street, or download, print, and circulate it among anyone you think will support this cause.

Moorecroft Motion Passes

  

A resolution has been passed by the Comox-Nanaimo Presbytery of the United Church that enables the sale of Camp Moorecroft, with a conservation covenant and with preference to a community-based buyer who will allow United Church camping to continue.

NALT is working with the RDN and other partners to develop 
an acquisition/management plan for the Moorecroft property.
