The Prince Edward Island Eco-Net de l'Ile-du-Prince-Edouard (PEIEN) is a not-for-profit, non-governmental network of groups on Prince Edward Island who care about our environment. The organization was originally formed in 1991 and was formally incorporated as a co-operative in 2000. The PEIEN is non-advocacy and thus does not take stands on particular issues. We are affiliated with 12 other Environmental Networks: a Network in each province, one in the Northern Territories, a First Nations Environmental Network, and a network of groups with a national focus such as the Sierra Club of Canada. We all come together under the Canadian Environmental Network (CEN), based in Ottawa, which coordinates the activities of 16 national Caucuses concerned with specific areas of interest.

When you volunteer at PEI Eco-Net you open the door to new experiences! With more than 35 member groups, there’s a wealth of opportunity to meet new people and do amazing new things!
Students in grades 11 and 12 can volunteer with us and earn provincial tuition credits at the same time. This means that for every hour they volunteer with us, they get credited $5 towards post-secondary education. The minimum number hours needed to qualify for a credit is 30 ($150) and maximum is 100 ($500).
It’s a terrific program - and the tuition credits are applicable to any university in Canada or the US!
