The Nature Conservancy of Canada has conserved and protected over 71,161 hectares (175,843 acres) in Manitoba, across nine natural areas critical to the province’s biodiversity. These areas provide important habitat for thousands of species of plants and animals, many of which are endangered or at risk. They aim to ensure that these special areas, plants and animals continue to be there for generations to come and that Manitoba continues to be a special place.

The Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter is Manitoba’s first registered charity NO-KILL animal shelter. Since it’s inception in 1999, the shelter has helped give thousands of injured, abandoned, and unwanted animals their second chance at life by providing food, shelter and veterinary care in a euthanasia-free environment.

Mama Bear Clan is a community safety initiative that was created by North Point Douglas Women’s Centre's Women's Warrior Circle. In 2016 a group of mothers, grandmothers, sisters and aunts decided that safety is something that is fostered through relationship: within ourselves, our home, and in the community. Sometimes all people need to feel safe is knowing someone cares about them.

The first of its kind in Manitoba, the PRISM program matches children and youth who identify as 2SLGBTQ+ with an adult mentor who also identifies as 2SLGBTQ+ for a one-on-one mentoring relationship or a new group option. Through regular activities, matches foster a friendship that is supportive, empowering and fun!
