Apply now for a green space renovation in your community
The Green Cities Foundation and our partners share a commitment to connecting plants and people and revitalizing green areas for community members to enjoy and benefit from. This is especially the case in cities, where more than 80 per cent of Canadians reside. The Foundation wants to work with you to green your community by providing/matching funds and/or material and labour donations to support green space renovation projects in your neighbourhood.
The #GreenMyCity program supports the restoration and building of green spaces, serving different populations and in different environments from parks, community gardens, sports fields, playgrounds and open public spaces.
Greenery is a critically important infrastructure that creates resilient and healthy communities.
- It helps slow down climate change by storing away carbon.
- It helps manage stormwater in urban areas to prevent flooding.
- It provides local wildlife with essential habitat.
- It increases mental and physical well-being.
