The Pacific Salmon Foundation is a mid-sized nonprofit based in Vancouver, British Columbia, focused on guiding the sustainable future of Pacific salmon and their habitats. It acts as a connector among communities, organizations, and businesses to restore and regenerate salmon populations across British Columbia and the Yukon, guided by evidence-based science. Donations support volunteer programs addressing salmon conservation and habitat renewal, while the foundation leads major initiatives on the Skeena and Fraser rivers in partnership with industry, government, First Nations, and other foundations. The foundation has operated since 1989 and acts as a voice for salmon conservation in Victoria and Ottawa. In 2026, it partnered with the Province of British Columbia, the First Nations Fisheries Council, and Fisheries and Oceans Canada to develop drought reporting tools to help communities raise alerts when drought affects salmon habitat.
