Advantages to supporting Green Communities Canada
Community Connections
Green Communities Canada is the national non-profit charity that connects and supports the work of grassroots, community-based organizations from coast to coast to coast. Our members operate in 325 cities and serve over 70% of Canada’s population, engaging over 270,000 participants annually. By supporting us, you help build a network of locally based and nationally connected change makers.
Make Your Impact Matter
GCC connects local projects with the support they need to increase scope and impact. We work collaboratively with members to secure funds and deliver progress towards strategic national objectives. We provide high-impact visibility and storytelling for funders and members who want their impact to be felt in the places Canadians live.
Trusted National Voice
For over thirty years GCC has been the trusted national voice for community-based environmental non-profits on the frontlines of climate change. National leadership is essential, but we believe that local, on-the-ground experience must inform public policy decisions at all levels. Canada’s communities are poised to lead with transformative change. With your help, we can leverage their experience and build their capacity.

How we do this matters
“The climate crisis is also a crisis of inequity and disparity. We believe that climate action must honour, mobilize, and build the knowledge and capacity found within communities, and that work should be rooted in an environmental justice framework.”
