Project Watershed Signs Pride Pledge
Sign the Safe, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Pledge
In honour of Valentine’s Day and to show our love for our community and everyone in it, Project Watershed proudly announces that we have signed the Safe, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Pledge that Comox Valley Pride has created.
Diversity is of paramount importance in nature. It increases productivity, resilience and sustainability in ecosystems. At Project Watershed, we spend most of our time and energy fostering and supporting ecological diversity and we feel it is just as important to do this in our human community. Join us in taking this step towards embracing diversity and making our community more inclusive.
“We look forward to finding other ways we can incorporate diversity, increase equity and become more inclusive at our organization.” reports Kathy Haigh, Project Watershed Fundraising Director.
