The Friends of Fort George

The Friends of Fort George in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Niagara Region, Canada | Fort

The Friends of Fort George in Niagara on the Lake, Canada, is a non-profit, cooperating association that was started in 1987. At the invitation of Parks Canada, local residents concurred that there were opportunities to become actively involved in the activities at Fort George. A Board of Directors was elected to The Friends of Fort George in 1987 with written bylaws of incorporation. An Executive Director was hired in 1990 and since that time the organization has continued to grow.
Each year The Friends of Fort George operates two gift shops, one located within Fort George in Niagara on the Lake and the other at Brock's Monument. The Friends of Fort George also oversee the interpretive programs at Brock's Monument.
Special events are organized by The Friends of Fort George to generate awareness and funds to support initiatives. These funds are then used, along with grants, to hire approximately twenty students for positions in the interpretation program at Fort George, Brock's Monument and Gift Shop.
The Friends of Fort George support events organized by Parks Canada staff at Niagara National Historic Sites.
A variety of services for all participants are provided for these events by the Friends, including meals, promotional material and equipment.
