Established in 1994, the Pacific Foundation for Understanding Nature Society (Pac FUNS) endeavours to facilitate partnerships and direct fundraising initiatives to:
  • Facilitate the capital improvement of North Vancouver Outdoor School (NVOS) and enhance its facilities and programmes in environmental and cultural education
  • Assist in funding for facility building projects and programme development in environmental and cultural education
  • Support local and international involvement in environmental and cultural education programmes

By completing projects related to the main purposes of the society, Pac FUNS intends to enhance the capacity for experiential learning in both environmental and cultural programming throughout British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest.
