Help Support Salmon Enhancement and the Chapman Creek Hatchery
Your donations are crucial to the Sunshine Coast Salmonid Enhancement Society. They play a vital role in funding our operations and ensuring the success of our activities.
Why Your Donation Matters
Sustaining Operations:
- Chapman Creek Hatchery: Donations directly support the operation and maintenance of our hatchery in Sechelt, BC.
- Salmon Enhancement: Contributions help us enhance four species of salmon, ensuring their return year after year.
Community and Environmental Benefits:
- Wildlife: Supports the food chain for birds and bears.
- Local Economies: Benefits tourism, First Nations harvests, and sport fishing opportunities.
Our Commitment
With a small dedicated team of one full-time and one part-time staff member, and 25 committed volunteers, we manage every aspect of our hatchery. Your support helps maintain our facility and funds education, hatchery events and summer camps.
How to Donate
Make a Difference:
- Any amount is a welcome one. The Sunshine Coast Salmonid Enhancement Society raises funds for over 70% of its annual budget. Memberships, donations, coin cans at various retail locations, and our annual May long weekend fish release festival make up a large part of our funding, which comes from people just like you.
- Our members will sometimes include a donation with their membership payment. Other donations here are received by our members or volunteers giving hatchery tours, some are left anonymously in our hatchery donation box or in our orange donation coin cans located up and down the Sunshine Coast. Additionally, we receive donations from businesses, governments, and individuals as a result of our solicitations.
- Refundable Cans and Bottles: We accept clean, refundable cans and bottles as another donation platform. Drop them off at the Hatchery or in the blue donations box at the Wilson Creek shopping plaza Shell station located in ts’uḵw’um (formerly Wilson Creek) at Field Rd and the Sunshine Coast Hwy. For hatchery drop-offs, go left as you enter our parking area, follow the driveway around the corner and just past the first building, look to your right for the drop-off area at our bottle sorting building. No need to sort them, we take care of this.
