Supporting the fundamental ideals expressed through the profession of landscape architecture.


Landscape architecture as a profession strives to balance human use and enjoyment of land with conservation and health of the environment. The primary goal of the Landscape Architecture Canada Foundation (LACF) is to support the fundamental ideals expressed through the profession of landscape architecture.

These ideals include but are not limited to:

- conserving and managing environmental resources;

- accommodating the needs of humans in the environment; and

- enhancing and improving aesthetic quality in the landscape.

To achieve these objectives, LACF solicits, receives and manages gifts, grants and legacies; sets policies and establishes program priorities; and reviews, funds and communicates its activities and programs.

Over the past two decades, LACF has supported a wide range of projects including habitat design guidelines, historic research and documentation, oral histories, professional education programs, design research, conference proceedings and communication projects.

Funding for the LACF grants program has been made possible through the generous donations of the CSLA College of Fellows, CSLA component associations, individual and group donors, and through bequests to the Foundation.
