Donate
If you would like to support our work, you can donate online via Canada Helps, or you can send a cheque or cash donation to ADIMS at PO Box 7, Denman Island, BC V0R 1T0. We are a CRA registered charity and can issue tax-exempt receipts. For cash/cheque donations, please fill out a membership form below so we know the legal name and address that should be on the tax receipt.
Become a Member
Everyone who donates automatically becomes a member of ADIMS. The membership list is not public, so your donation is confidential. If you wish, you can also choose to make your donation anonymously. The only downside to an anonymous donation is that ADIMS will be unable to send you a charitable tax receipt.
Along with your donation, we encourage you to fill out an online or paper membership form so that we can mail you a tax receipt, and you can let us know if you wish to be added to our email list and volunteer list.
Join the Annual ADIMS Beach Cleanup
Our cleanup of Denman Island shorelines makes a difference in keeping lost aquaculture gear, predator netting, plastic debris, and harmful microplastics out of our ocean. Did you know that every year Denman Islanders collect 7+ metric tonnes of lost aquaculture gear and plastic debris from our beaches? We can always use more help! Our next Cleanup will be in Spring 2026, so keep an eye out for announcements via our Email list, our Facebook page, local newspapers, and our ADIMS newsletter. To join our email list and/or volunteer list, send an email to adimsinfo@gmail.com and let us know what you prefer.
Check out Sussan Thomson’s video HERE to learn about our 2017 cleanup.
The Annual Denman Island Beach Cleanup is organized as part of the Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup, the largest conservation-based cleanup program in the country.
