Environmental Partnership Fund

The Environmental Partnership Fund, which began in 1993, gives Manitoba Hydro opportunities to support environmentally worthwhile endeavors by external, not-for-profit organizations. The program provides one-time or multi-year contributions toward environmental projects that relate to our activities and have a strong environmental/energy education focus.

Projects currently receiving funds include:

• The Raptor Public Education Program of the Manitoba Wildlife Rehabilitation Organization
• Rivers West Curriculum Development Project
• Six Seasons of the North Aboriginal Curriculum Project. Mystery Lake School Division, Thompson
• Green Kids’ interactive theatre on electricity and sustainable development.

We proudly continue our long-term relationship with the Fort Whyte Centre on environmental programs.

Among other projects, we are providing funding for a Climate Change Field Station, to foster public awareness of greenhouse gas issues and the steps everyone can take to reduce emissions. Check out Fort Whyte’s own website, at www.fortwhyte.org.
