Gananoque & District Humane Society

A Greener Future is an environmental non-profit dedicated to leading the effort in sustaining a clean and healthy environment. By bringing together a community of volunteers and environmental stewards, we facilitate programs that eliminate waste from the environment. As education is at the centre of what we do, we inspire change through a variety of learning opportunities. Our programs raise awareness about plastic pollution in the Great Lakes Region, and detailed data collection sheds a light on the most common items that are found during litter cleanups. Together our impact is wide-reaching, bringing us one step closer to our goal.

Founded in 2010, Kingston Animal Rescue is a no-kill animal rescue group. We rescue and find forever homes for animals in need. We are a registered charity. (83024 4802 RR0001). Using a network of foster homes, we take in last chance animals - animals that are at high risk of euthanasia or those that would otherwise be at risk without our help. This includes animals at shelters and stray animals. We also assist in emergency rescues, including small animals removed from neglectful situations. As a no-kill rescue, our animals stay in foster homes until they are adopted. We work to educate the public about the proper care and treatment of animals as well as the pet overpopulation crisis and the importance of spaying/neutering and adoption.

The Rideau Waterway Land Trust is a not-for-profit charitable organization dedicated to preserving ecologically significant lands within the Rideau Corridor, between Kingston and Ottawa. Our area of interest includes the Rideau River Watershed and part of the Cataraqui River Watershed. The majority of our 25 conserved lands are located within the Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve, a UNESCO-recognized biosphere region in Canada. The Rideau Canal is a designated National Historic Site, Canadian Heritage River, and UNESCO World Heritage Site. RWLT works with property owners and community organizations to acquire and protect lands for the benefit of the community and future generations. RWLT relies on revenues from Rock Dunder, Covington Cottage, grants and donations to fulfill our mission.
