| Real Estate Foundation of BC
The Real Estate Foundation endeavours to support sustainable real estate and land use practices for the benefit of British Columbians.
Their proactive stance often includes playing the role of partner. The generous donation to the Aldergrove Bowl for redevelopment is an example of a partnership with other funders and different levels of government in order to complete the first phase of this multi faceted project. The Real Estate Foundation decided to become a donor for several reasons, one compelling reason was the desire to help turn an 'ugly duckling into a swan' and they had a vsion of how land use change could benefit a community; in this instance by changing a brown industrial site to a green park. The Real Estate Foundation also appreciated that the Aldergrove Bowl redevelopment is a model of how nature can be protected while at the same time allowing for high public use. Metro Vancouver and its East area planning Department is to be commended for making responsible and thoughtful land use decisions. | Related Articles BC Society of Landscape ArchitectsBertrand Creek Enhancement SocietyBritish Columbia Dental AssociationCentral City FoundationCertified Dental Assistant of BCChippendale FoundationColony Farm Regional Park Community Garden's SocitetyDelta Naturalists' SocietyFundraising Effort - Pacific Parklands FoundationHuman Resources Development CanadaImperial Oil FoundationIron Lung EventsKwantlen CollegeLittle Campbell Watershed SocietyLangley Dental Hygiene SeminarsMennonite Central CommitteeMetro Vancouver (Grant)Metro Vancouver Golf TournamentPacific Parkland Foundation Program FundingReal Estate Foundation of BCRichard Brodeur Celebrity ClassicRonald McDonald House CharityRotary Club of BurnabyRotary Club of Burnaby - Deer LakeRotary Club of Burnaby - MetrotownRBC FoundationSurrey FoundationTD Friends of the Environment FoundationTree Canada FoundationUBC Properties TrustVancity Community FundVancity EnvirofundVancouver FoundationVariety, the children's charityFeature Donor
