EAC Hike-a-Thon

Hike, bike or whatever you like. Be part of our environmental movement! 

We're excited for the third annual Hike-a-Thon fundraiser where you can enjoy the great outdoors while supporting the Ecology Action Centre: August 1 – September 23, 2026.

Registration is now open! 

Register

Sign up today for a greener tomorrow. Then walk, swim, paddle, roll, dance or participate in whatever activity works for you from August 1 – September 23 as you raise money to support the EAC. Hike-a-Thon will conclude with an awards ceremony party in Halifax at the end of September!

How does Hike-a-Thon work?

Individuals and teams sign up for the Hike-a-Thon by registering through Raisely. During August and September, registrants participate in their chosen activities, fundraise, and update their progress towards their goals. Even though the emphasis is on "hiking," setting a goal that is fun & accessible to you is welcome and encouraged.

As an example, your goal might be to go for a 10km hike, or to cycle to work three days a week, or to swim in a lake every other weekend, and to raise $100. That could be asking four people to sponsor you and give $25, five people to give $20 or 10 people $10. When you break it down, it’s no sweat! You update your network as you progress towards your activity and fundraising goals, and maybe even exceed your targets! And EAC provides resources and support as you go. There will be grand prizes for the individuals who raise the most money, and those who have the most logged active minutes!

Sign up today and get ready for August 1!
