WHO WE ARE

BC Water Legacy emerged as a strategic project of the BC Water Funders Collaborative, a group of funding organizations working together to help advance water protection in British Columbia.

In 2016, members of the Collaborative—including the Real Estate Foundation of British Columbia, the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, and the Sitka Foundation—recognized the growing momentum behind improved watershed planning and governance in B.C. Working in partnership with MakeWay, they combined their resources to create BC Water Legacy. 

 

Drawing on local experience and expert advice, this unique initiative makes capacity investments in leadership and innovation at the watershed scale to advance water sustainability throughout B.C.

"I believe we have a responsibility to create a better, fairer, and more equitable future.  I am excited about the opportunity for bold action in BC that builds a legacy of secure watersheds for Indigenous and non-Indigenous British Columbians. If we take care of our watersheds, our watersheds can take care of us."
