SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY YOU LOVE
Every year, the village Foundation reaches out to our neighbours, asking for their support of our Annual Appeal. There’s no small contribution. Every dollar raised helps protect, enhance, and enrich our community, supporting the RPRA programs.
And new this year, we are adding the option to contribute to the renewal of the Centennial Garden. Donations can be made online through CanadaHelps using the “I’ll Give Now” button below.
Donations are tax-deductible and can be one-time or monthly contributions.
Or donate by cheque: Please make cheque payable to the Rockcliffe Park Foundation. Mail or deliver it to: Rockcliffe Park Foundation, 25 Westward Way, Rockcliffe ON K1L 5A8.
A tax receipt is mailed to donors and a list of donors will be included in the spring issue of the Rockcliffe News.
Rockcliffe thrives because of you - and will continue to thrive with your ongoing support.
The Centennial Garden - The Heart of our Park
The Centennial Garden located at the heart of the village, was established in 1967 to commemorate Canada’s centennial. Designed by renowned landscape architect Humphrey Carver, the garden now requires a refresh to maintain its beauty and functionality. While the City of Ottawa has pledged support, we need your help to complete this important project.
Our Community’s Programs and Events
Thanks to donations from neighbours like you, the Rockcliffe Park Foundation is able to make a real difference in our neighbourhood, every year providing the funds for our community’s programs and events.
When you donate, you fund the Rockcliffe newsletter and Rockcliffe Park Residents Association events including our neighbourhood’s Heritage Walk, Movie Night, Rockcliffe Community Tree Day, Speakers Program, and our Children’s Holiday Party.
Donations also support the Foundation’s commitment to ongoing environmental and conservation programs in Rockcliffe Park. These include water testing at the Pond and McKay Lake, tree planting to preserve our maturing tree canopy, maintenance of the sports field at Rockcliffe Park Public School and Jubilee Garden, and conservation initiatives including the data collection project this summer on Pond use so that efforts at both conservation and continued access to the Pond can be maintained.
Capital Campaigns
Part of our history is also that of being a supporter of special campaigns in our neighbourhood, from the redevelopment of the sports field to the construction of our Community Hall and more.
