Welcome to Cascadia Nonprofit Community (CN!)

As a place, Cascadia is a unique coastal bioregion that defines the Pacific Northwest of the United States and Canada, as defined through the watersheds of the Fraser and Columbia watersheds. This natural border incorporates all of or parts of southern Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, and Northern California.

As an action, Cascadia is a positive, place-based drive with the idea that political borders are fine where they are now (CascadiaNow!) when working in harmony with natural borders. This border harmony creates an inclusive community feeling, a sense of place, that inspires working together to support one another locally in a resilient and sustainable way. We love Cascadia the way it is now - defined by nature, culture, and place-based actions.

As an organization, we fulfill our mission by building a bioregional nonprofit community that fosters a culture rooted in the love of place, cultural competence, and sustainability. CN! is network of projects and programs across the Pacific Northwest, most under our 501(c)3 nonprofit umbrella. We proudly support dozens of volunteers leading local, grassroots community projects that have a global impact as their fiscal sponsor!
