Healing
From lowering stress and anxiety, to boosting overall feelings of happiness, time spent outdoors has proven benefits for mental health. Legacy Place Acres harnesses the healing power of nature!
Perspective
We’ve seen firsthand how crucial “getting away from it all” can be, especially for those under constant high stress. Legacy Place Acres offers a peaceful rural setting where nature itself becomes a powerful tool for mental and emotional recovery.
Community
Belonging is vital to both our mental and physical well-being. It’s about feeling seen, heard and supported. Legacy Place Acres provides an opportunity to experience the healing calm of nature and the warmth of human connection.
We are excited to announce Legacy Place Acres, an innovative rural location designed to holistically support the health and well-being of first responders, military personnel, veterans, and their families. Situated on a serene property between Calgary and Airdrie, Legacy Place Acres will be a sanctuary for connection, healing, and resilience. This project builds on the success of our 2019-2021 pilot project, which demonstrated the profound impact of a rural setting on fostering wellness and community.
The projected cost for this project is approximately $3.5 million, of which Legacy Place Society has already secured $1.6 million through private donations and other sources. To bridge the funding gap, we are launching the Growing Together Campaign to raise an additional $1.9 million in private donations to make Legacy Place Acres a reality.
