“Our biggest hope for helping spread awareness about the Nature-Based Solutions Foundation's project, the Old-Growth Solutions Initiative, is to elevate a new root-cause model that advances how we protect nature in Canada.” - Patagonia Vancouver staff

"When I first saw what the Nature Based Solutions Foundation is doing for our communities and our environment, I was obsessed. I immediately wanted to be involved. They're an amazing organization doing important work for all of us. Keeping old growth forests intact for future generations is critical. " - Aaron Cruikshank, Founder

"Protecting old-growth forests and native ecosystems is integral to what we do at Robinson's because we outfit people to go outside and spend time in nature. We support and are so proud to align with Nature-Based Solutions Foundation because they work with communities to protect endangered ecosystems like these while creating sustainable solutions so that no one is giving up their livelihood. It's a way that we can all move forward while protecting the places we all love." - Erin Boggs, Co-Owner

“There are many great causes that you can support. But I believe that if you zoom out to the big picture, you begin to see that investing in conservation to take care of the planet and these incredibly important and precious places is the only way to avoid catastrophic problems in the future. I support the Nature-Based Solutions Foundation because I believe it presents the highest likelihood of return on investment. Philanthropy is about driving real change, and to me, this is the place to do it.”

“Frequent flights over Vancouver Island have given me a front-row seat to the devastation arising from logging old growth forests. The impact to our climate is irrefutable and finding a solution that meets the needs of all communities and stakeholders is a time sensitive and urgent problem. I feel confident that the team behind the Nature-Based Solutions Foundation is uniquely positioned to make this happen.”

“The Nicola family established its first foundation 25 years ago as a way of paying it forward. Over our lifetimes, many individuals and groups have helped us to build our careers and our business, and we want to “share the pie” and help others who are building, too. The Nature-Based Solutions Foundation certainly fits that description with its commitment to preserving our environment, and in particular, our old-growth forests. It is our privilege to be able to help!”
