About the Foundation

Since 2007, the Campbell River Salmon Foundation has been dedicated to supporting local conservation efforts, raising over $1.4 million in community funds. All funds are raised right here in Campbell River and are directly reinvested into projects that benefit the region. The Foundation’s work spans from the Oyster River watershed to the Campbell River watershed and the adjacent mainland.
