Current Campaigns

Re-Imagining the Parnell House Campaign

Our current campaign is re-imagining the future of our current offices at the Parnell House in downtown Whitehorse. Where there are offices today, we see the potential for a new Green Community Hub to serve the community and further conservation efforts across the Yukon.

The new Community Hub will be one of the Yukon’s only net-zero carbon emitting buildings with accessible spaces for community gatherings and hands-on environmental workshops for everyone.

Making this project a reality will need the support of the community behind it - lend your support today by signing your name to our petition, suggesting names and ideas for the new space, and get entered to win over $500 in prizes!
