People, Problem-Solving, and Practical Projects: ICAN launches first ever funding drive to support our work on Quadra.
For the month of May, ICAN is asking you to consider making a charitable donation and/or giving your Tru Spirit Points to #315.
Your support will help us to prove that “I CAN” make a difference to helping Quadra become more resilient and self-sufficient in the face of ecological challenges.
Did you know that ICAN was responsible for starting our community garden here on Quadra? Originally formed in 2008, they also worked with Sierra Quadra to ban plastic bags at local retailers and led an anti-idling campaign.
In 2020 ICAN was re-launched with new ideas and new energy. They quickly formed nine Action Teams and have implemented over 40 new projects! From a Library of Things to mapping watersheds, from planting nut trees to distributing tanks for rain collection, from installing solar panels on the school to upcycling rags, from repairing garden tools to starting a cooperative garden, from writing many informative articles to leading numerous hands-on workshops, the list of useful endeavors goes on and on!
To get a full sense of the nine Action Teams and some of their projects, past and present, please check out the “Action Teams” and “Featured Projects” tabs in the menu above.
