Scholarship Student Highlight: Torrie Nicholas Torrie is one of this year’s Al Marting Scholarship Recipients and is a master’s student from Thompson Rivers University. Torrie’s research is focused on the impacts of predation on Chinook salmon by invasive Smallmouth bass. Working with the Okanagan Nation Alliance and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Torrie is exploring the potential that Smallmouth bass are preying on juvenile salmon in key rearing and migrating habitats. To determine if this is the case, she will be analyzing the stomach contents of approximately 200 Smallmouth bass collected in the Okanagan area. This research will provide critical data to support conservation management strategies, mitigating threats to sk’lwist populations in the Okanagan.

🌊 We’re featured in AFS’s new film series, Tomorrow’s Catch: Securing Our Future Fisheries! 🎥 In our segment “Breathing Life Into Logan Lake,” we shine a light on a community-driven solution to a pressing problem: winter oxygen depletion under ice. This project is a perfect example of conservation in action, where science, local innovation, and community values unite to restore ecosystems and strengthen the well-being of the people who depend on them. It’s more than just saving fish; it's about protecting a way of life. 🌿🏞️ Huge thanks to the @americanfisheries and Content With Purpose for featuring HCTF in this powerful and visually striking digital series launched in August 2025 that spotlights bold conservation stories across North America and beyond! #TomorrowsCatch #FisheriesConservation #HCTF #LoganLake #BCConservation #InnovationInAction #AFS #TomorrowsCatch #FutureFisheries #FisheriesScience #AquaticConservation #SustainableFisheries #SustainableAquaculture #FreshwaterCrisis #ClimateResilientFisheries #AquaticBiodiversity #FishHabitatRestoration #HealthyWatersheds #FisheriesProfessionals

🍂 Happy Thanksgiving, British Columbia! 🦃 As we gather to share food and gratitude, we’re thankful for the incredible natural spaces and wildlife that make B.C. home. From vibrant forests and winding rivers to the diverse species that depend on them, these landscapes sustain us all. 🌲🐾 At HCTF, we’re thankful for the conservationists, educators, volunteers, and communities who work tirelessly to protect B.C.’s fish, wildlife, and habitats. Every project we fund helps build a more resilient future — one that all British Columbians can be thankful for. 💚 Let’s remember to give thanks not just for nature, but to nature — by caring for the lands and waters that care for us. #HCTF #Thanksgiving #ConservationInBC #HabitatConservation #BCWildlife #GratefulForNature #ProtectWhatYouLove

HCTF is pleased to announce a new funding opportunity beginning in the 2026-27 grant year, “Raptors of the Fraser Valley Lowlands.” This opportunity stems from a collaboration between HCTF, the B.C. Ministry of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship, and the Hancock Wildlife Foundation. HCTF has a long history of investing in projects that restore, conserve, or enhance fish and wildlife populations and habitats, including avian raptor populations at risk. This new fund will support prioritized activities that improve outcomes for raptors (eagles, hawks, falcons, owls, etc.) of the Fraser Valley Lowlands of B.C. (Hope to Richmond/Delta). These outcomes include both direct and indirect improvements to populations or habitat for these birds.

Did you know that 14% of HCTF’s annual revenue comes from investment income? HCTF manages multiple endowments, and the income from these investments goes directly toward funding conservation projects across B.C. ensuring lasting impact for fish, wildlife, and habitat. We’re proud to share that 100% of HCTF’s investments are in Responsible Investing (RI) portfolios. Responsible Investing integrates environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into investment decisions — helping reduce risk, promote sustainability, and align financial goals with environmental values. For HCTF, our commitment to Responsible Investing is threefold: 🌎 Reduce financial risks tied to the climate crisis and fossil fuel–related stranded assets. 💚 Align investments with our conservation values. 🤝 Empower donors and partners to make an even greater impact through sustainable investing. By investing responsibly, we’re ensuring that every dollar works harder not only for today’s projects, but for the future of B.C.’s wild places. #ResponsibleInvesting #ConservationInAction #SustainableFinance #BCWildlife #HabitatConservation #HCTF #ImpactInvesting

Thanks to GO Grants, students across BC are exploring wetlands, forests, and shorelines this fall! 🚌 These grants help fund hands-on learning experiences that bring conservation to life. Applications for our February intake of GO Grants are open now, so don’t miss out on this great opportunity! GO Grants make it easier for K–12 classes in BC to explore biodiversity outdoors! These grants can cover transportation, materials, or program fees so teachers can bring their students outside to learn and connect with nature. Educators, apply today at: https://hctf-grants.smapply.ca/prog/go_grants/ A big thank you to @bcparksfoundation for supporting GO Grants! #TeachersOfInstagram #HCTFEducation #OutdoorLearning #HandsOnLearning #BCEducation #BackToSchoolBC #GetOutsideBC #NatureBasedEducation #LearningOutdoors #WildlifeConservation #GOGrants

As the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, thousands of birds take to the skies on one of nature’s greatest journeys: fall migration. From songbirds to waterfowl, many species travel vast distances between their northern breeding grounds and southern wintering areas. British Columbia plays a vital role in this seasonal movement. Our wetlands, estuaries, and forests provide critical stopover points where migratory birds can rest and refuel. Protecting these habitats ensures birds have safe passage today and for generations to come. This fall, take a moment to look up you might witness a migration in motion. 📷 Stuart Sanders #ConservationInAction #BCWildlife #HabitatConservation #BirdMigration #FallInBC

Applications are now open for HCTF’s Land Stewardship Grant! The Land Stewardship Grant supports conservation projects across B.C. that protect, enhance, or restore important habitats and the species that depend on them. The Land Stewardship Grant provides three years of funding for operations and management activities on lands owned OR managed by non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Funding for this program is provided through an endowment fund provided to HCTF by the Province of British Columbia. From wetlands to grasslands, coastal ecosystems to interior forests—every funded project helps ensure a healthier, more resilient future for wildlife and people in B.C. 🦉🌿 📅 Don’t miss your chance! Applications close November 7, 2025 @ 4:30pm. 🔗 Learn more and apply through the link in our bio.
