About This Cause
The Cheakamus Foundation for Environmental Learning was created in January 2009 to support the ongoing success and viability of Cheakamus Centre. Established in 1969, Cheakamus Centre is an overnight environmental education facility located on 170 ha (420 acres) of ecological reserve near Squamish, British Columbia, Canada. The Centre offers a wide variety of experiential environmental educational programs to children and adults from the Sea to Sky corridor, Metro Vancouver, and beyond. Offerings include multi-day field school, indigenous cultural programming at the longhouse, youth leadership, outdoor recreation, and other hands-on experiences intended to instill in young learners a sense of respect and appreciation for the natural world. Cheakamus Centre also hosts visitors from around the globe for nature-based special events, weddings, retreats, conferences, camps, and workshops.
