Since 1999, you’ve helped us raise over $4.5 million to support the community’s greatest needs. Waskesiu is a very special place and we’re proud to work with you to improve it now and for future generations.

How your gift will be used

Your support means kids will have a safe, interactive and imaginative place to play. You’ll help preserve our past, remember what came before us and build our future. Together we’ll have a place to connect as a community, to re-discover family and loved ones and to catch up with friends & neighbours. You’ll create safe spaces for people of all ages to stay active, enjoy nature and explore in the great outdoors.

You have the power to make an enormous impact in the Waskesiu community, while still supporting those you love.
