Designing and delivering sustainability programs for homes, business, and cities since 1998
Windfall Ecology Centre was founded in 1998 by Brent Kopperson as a non-profit social enterprise dedicated to supporting sustainable communities. The creation of Windfall was inspired by a vision of healthy communities, where economic, social, and environmental needs achieve balance through social innovation, community partnership, and community action. The Centre's activities focus on empowering communities to create holistic prosperity in a carbon-constrained 21st century.
Working at the nexus of energy, water, food, and people, we research, design, and deliver innovative climate change solutions. Our record of accomplishment includes achievements in public policy and education, energy conservation, renewable energy, electric mobility, water protection, and youth leadership development.
Windfall Ecology Centre is located on the traditional territories of the Wendat, Haudeno-saunee, and the Anishinaabe peoples and the treaty land of the Williams Treaties First Nations and other Indigenous peoples whose presence here continues to this day. We thank them for sharing this land with us.
We acknowledge the contributions and historic importance of Indigenous people to this place and our collective commitment to make the promise and the challenge of Truth and Reconciliation real in our community.
