Charitable Donations

Dear Friends of Keppoch,

For many of us, Keppoch holds a special place—a favourite trail, a child’s first mountain bike ride, a winter afternoon outdoors, or time spent with friends and family. Together, these experiences make the mountain an important part of our community. For me, it was leaning to ski here at age four and enjoying sharing it with my kids today.

As 2026 draws to a close, we are writing on behalf of the Keppoch Board of Directors to ask you to consider a year-end donation to help care for this special place.

Keeping Keppoch safe, welcoming and active throughout the year takes ongoing work and investment. Trails need maintenance, equipment and facilities need care, and programs need resources. Behind every visit is the commitment of staff, volunteers, members, partners and donors who help make it possible.

Your donation will support the everyday work that keeps Keppoch thriving: maintaining trails and facilities, supporting outdoor recreation and programming, and strengthening the mountain’s financial foundation for the year ahead.

We want Keppoch to remain a place where children build confidence, families spend time together, and people of all ages connect with nature and one another. Your support helps us care for what our community has built and plan responsibly for its future.

As you consider your year-end giving, please include Keppoch. Whether you are a regular visitor, a longtime supporter, a local business or someone who simply values having this resource in our region, a gift of any size will help.

Please make your donation by December 31 - visit CanadaHelps

Thank you for every way you support Keppoch—through your visits, volunteer hours, encouragement and generosity. We are grateful to share the responsibility of caring for the mountain with you.

With warm wishes for the holiday season and the year ahead,

Mark Stewart

Keppoch Board President
