RBC Grant Supports TILTreks Program

June 23, 2022

Last Fall, the RBC Foundation awarded a grant to our TILTreks Program.

With grant support from the RBC Foundation, the Thousand Islands Land Trust is empowered to strengthen our community as a whole by providing free youth environmental programming. These programs stimulate creativity and innovation, develop social skills, provide diverse recreational opportunities designed for all ages, promote healthy living, and work with community partners to create memorable experiences out on the land. 

Community partnerships like these enable the TILT to have a real impact on our future conservationists and leaders.

From kayaking to meditation walks and everything in-between, TILTreks have something for everyone! Register for one of our upcoming Treks and get out on the land!
