Building a Broad-Based Movement: Thank You to These Non-Traditional Allies!

Building a broad-based movement to protect old-growth forests by engaging non-traditional allies, such as businesses, unions, outdoor recreation groups, chambers of commerce, tourism associations, faith groups, and more, is the hallmark of our work at Ancient Forest Alliance. Of these diverse non-traditional allies, there are a number who’ve recently shown their support with generous gifts to AFA, and we’d like to take this opportunity to thank them!

Thank you to:

Living Forest Campground and Burnaby Central Secondary School’s WISH Club for their generous donations to the old-growth campaign.

Botanical Bliss for their monthly contributions to the AFA since 2022.

Ethos Imagery, who donated for the second time this year in their mission to allocate 1% of all sales to AFA.

And Dirty Freehub podcast, whose donation acted as a thank you to members of AFA and their assistance with Dirty Freehub’s READ & RIDE program for Big Lonely Doug, working to inspire cyclists to get involved with the campaign to protect ancient forests in BC. Check out Dirty Freehub’s podcast featuring episodes with AFA’s TJ Watt and Endangered Ecosystem Alliance’s Ken Wu!
