The Carolinian Canada Coalition is
a unique organization in this region, filling the gap between
national and local programs. As the zone is increasingly
recognized as a priority for conservation, taking the time to
build our core capacity is a natural evolution in the history of
this organization. It is a response to increased participation
of our members and partners.
The Coalition has worked
under a variety of organizational structures in the past
reflecting its history as a collaborative. Recently,
our management committee and allies have recognized a strong
need for Carolinian Canada Coalition
to become incorporated as a registered charity in order
to raise funds independently
and manage key programs. To support an incorporated
structure, a solid organizational foundation is needed to carry
out major programs, provide accountability and expand to
new program areas as needed. Feedback on this move from
partner organizations is positive, as they recognize and support
the continuation of a strong Coalition.
The Coalition is
concurrently developing comprehensive
strategic plan. This
document is crucial to map out how our organization fits into
and can best support the wider goals of the conservation
community.
Your participation as a member,
stakeholder or interested resident of Carolinian Canada is
encouraged as we grow together towards a greener future.
