The Lifeboat Network
We live in turbulent times and they are likely to get even bumpier - that's why we are launching the Lifeboat Network and we need your help.
We think our best hope lies in creating a fleet of “lifeboats” — place-based resilience networks with the practical skills necessary to face an uncertain future and insecure supply chains — connected in a peer-to-peer mutual support network.
As part of our commitment to mobilization, we are putting 100 percent of our efforts into growing the Lifeboat Academy as an experimental “lifeboat” — a model of resilience and regeneration at the person, place, and community level and create a support network with others working on similar projects.
We are using our all our available time, energy and resources to create the first campus of the Lifeboat Academy at Spalding Valley Farm on Pender Island, BC. We envision a space that provides examples and education for other individuals and communities to create their own lifeboats.
Every dollar we receive will be used to build our material capacity at the farm so that we are in a better position to help other lifeboat builders around the world.
Every single dollar donated helps us continue to operate as a model for resilience and regeneration, sharing what we are learning along the way.
Thank you so much for your support! We are ALL in this together.
