Peter Orphanos “Credit Forever” Tree Planting Fund

Peter Orphanos

 The Credit River Watershed recently lost a very dear friend. Sierra Club Peel chapter founder and community environmental leader, Peter Orphanos, passed away on Dec. 17, 2013. His passing is a tremendous loss to the environmental community in the Credit River watershed.

 

Peter was a visionary leader who had an intuitive understanding of what our natural environment will face in the years to come. He understood the value of a healthy environment to human health and our quality of life. Peter’s bold vision was to see the Credit River valley lands planted with trees and protected within the Greenbelt.

 

To ensure that Peter’s vision and legacy continue, the Credit Valley Conservation Foundation has established the Peter Orphanos “Credit Forever” Tree Planting Fund.

 

In honour and memory of Peter, we are writing to ask you to make a donation in support of his vision of planting 500,000 trees in the Credit River Valley.
