CORE Burlington

We’re absolutely blown away!
Sarah Harmer is generously matching donations up to $20,000! 💛

Swipe to hear some of what Sarah shared about the fight to protect Mount Nemo and the history and passion of CORE and PERL! 🏞️

We are so grateful to Sarah, and we hope you’ll take this opportunity to make a donation at the link in our bio!!!

The Ontario Land Tribunal hearing is coming up fast, so it’s now or never for us to raise the funds needed to pay the technical and legal team that will defend Mount Nemo and the community’s interests at the hearing in March.‼️

Special thanks to MPP Zee Hamid, our newly elected MPP! He made a promise to fight for Mount Nemo, and he’s been working hard to support CORE Burlington. Thanks also to Mayor Meedward for sharing some words of encouragement and support! We could not do this without our elected officials 🌸

Sunday, August 25th, fan favourite Sarah Harmer will be in concert at the Royal Botanical Gardens!

Bring your own lawn chairs, blankets and cushions for turf seating. Rental chairs are available for $5.

Not only do we love Sarah for her beautiful and inspiring music, but can’t thank her enough for all she does to protect Mount Nemo! Growing up in the area, she takes to heart the importance of preserving this special ecosystem and works tirelessly to protect it.

Do you want to support the preservation of Mount Nemo?

Designed by the incredibly talented Anne Douris, Sarah’s “For the Headwaters” limited edition T-shirts are just about the prettiest shirts we’ve ever seen!💖

Inspired by Mount Nemo, Lake Medad, and other meaningful natural features in the area, we can’t get over how cool this artwork is! And what’s extra cool about it, is 100% of proceeds from sales of this shirt go directly to fund our upcoming OLT hearing in defence of our beloved headwaters on Mount Nemo! 🦋

Thank you so much to Sarah Harmer for all your hard work and dedication to preserving and protecting the beautiful Mount Nemo!!! We are so excited and can hardly wait for the concert!! ✨
