Over half of our 1200+ youth participants need bursary support annually!
With your Walkalong donations:
- YOUÂ will make it possible for children to travel to Galiano.
- YOUÂ will give children their first experiences in nature – from camping with their friends, to hiking among 100+ year old trees or finding their first sea star.
- YOUÂ will inspire young environmental stewards and climate-action leaders!
Watch Maia Green, Grade 8 teacher at Esquimalt Middle School explain how bursaries made her class’s 2018 trip to Galiano possible.

Zita and Mark Bernstein Family Foundation
I am delighted to be able to support the GCA’s 2021 Walkalong through the Zita and Mark Bernstein Family Foundation.
My involvement with the GCA dates back to the early 1990s – when thanks to Rose Longini’s organization and hospitality -I was able to join baroque violinist Monica Huggett in several benefit concerts for the GCA. These were the highlights of my admittedly very short performing career, and it has been wonderful to follow the Conservancy’s amazing work since then.
The Zita and Mark Bernstein Family Foundation is named after my parents, and was established in 2019 through a bequest of my late father. The Foundation’s mandate is broad, but my two sisters and I share a commitment to charities that support education, the environment/land stewardship, social justice, the performing arts, and quality of life for the elderly.
I wish you all the best for this year’s Walkalong, and look forward to taking part in one when the pandemic has passed!
-Tamara Bernstein, Zita and Mark Bernstein Family Foundation
