Squamish Trails Society receives much of its funding from a few key sources:
o Become a member and show your commitment to Squamish Trails!
o Membership helps us out financially
o And strong membership numbers means your voice is heard on important trail issues.
o The Squamish Trails Society also receives (through its charitable status) donations and contributions from organizations and individuals. Thank you! (link to donation link)
o In the past STS has received grant funding from the District of Squamish. Currently there is no formal annual arrangement for such.
o We do seek grant funding from governments on a project-by-project basis
The Society very often partners with developers and business organizations to fund projects as well.
