Heritage Winnipeg’s 2023 December Donation Drive

As a charitable organization, Heritage Winnipeg is asking for your help to support our efforts to protect and conserve our city’s irreplaceable built heritage. Your contribution to our 2023 December Donation Drive is an investment in the future of all Winnipeggers, helping conserve the heritage in the city we all love and call home!

This past year we have made great strides in built heritage conservation alongside the community. The West Kildonan Public Library and the International Order of Odd Fellows Home both became designated heritage buildings. Crescentwood-Enderton Park became the second Heritage Conservation District in Winnipeg. We continued to celebrate built heritage at our Annual Preservation Awards and our annual Doors Open Winnipeg event. Additionally, we continued our conservation work and management of the historic Millennium Centre, and supported the community through student jobs, volunteer opportunities, mentorship programs, and providing many resources and public services.

In this giving season, we ask you to consider contributing generously to our 2023 December Donation Drive so we can continue our important work.
