Development and Engagement Coordinator
Aimee MacDonald headshot

Aimee (she/her) currently resides in Vancouver on unceded xʷməθkʷəy̓əm, Sḵwx̱wú7mesh and səlilwətaɬ territories.

Aimee is a queer, GenX settler who works at the Wilderness Committee. She loves working at the organization because it’s a place where she is surrounded by thoughtful and courageous colleagues who inspire and challenge her to keep working to create the society she wants to live in. In her experience, the Wilderness Committee approaches the environmental movement through a lens of justice and centres this in campaign work – it is why, once Aimee started as a canvasser in 2005, she just never left. Her connection to nature is getting soaking wet biking to work in pouring winter rain and hanging out on a beach whenever she can. Aimee became active in the environmental movement because she deeply enjoyed sorting garbage, but these days she has a deeper analysis of her own values that support her activism.
