United for wetland conservation!

Taking Concrete Action for Nature in Quebec

As we celebrate 50 years of conservation actions in Quebec, we’re doing more than looking back on our achievements, we’re building the future.

We’ve taken on an ambitious challenge: inspiring 50 concrete commitments to protect wetlands. Each commitment represents a meaningful action that will help advance our conservation work throughout Quebec.

We’re already halfway there. Join us and help make a difference!

Because we protect what we love… will you take action?

Your Commitment Makes Our Conservation Success Possible! Explore ways you can support wetlands and wildlife in Quebec.

  • Land donation: Safeguard a special place for future generations while contributing to meaningful conservation outcomes.
  • Planned Giving: A planned gift can make a meaningful difference, regardless of your financial circumstances.
  • Strategic giving : Make a transformational contribution. We can help you structure your gift to achieve even greater impact.
  • Corporate Partnerships: From sponsorships and charitable donations to employee and community engagement activities, DUC helps your business make a lasting difference for nature.

Healthy ecosystems for resilient living environments!

Wetlands work for us! They perform a multitude of ecological functions that benefit wildlife, plants, and people alike. Did you know, for example, that they help regulate water, thereby reducing the risk of flooding?

Here are some of the other functions they provide:

  • water filtration;
  • sediment retention and erosion control;
  • carbon storage;
  • shade and windbreaks;
  • landscape quality;
  • biodiversity;
  • ecological connectivity.

By supporting our mission, you are taking action for biodiversity and the climate! You are also helping us leave a healthy world for future generations.
