A campaign aimed at making Saskatchewan’s Wanuskewin Heritage Park an international cultural landmark is on its way to meeting its $40 million goal, and a donation of $500,000 has helped edge it even closer to the target.

On Tuesday morning, representatives from the Thundering Ahead campaign, the Saskatoon Tribal Council and Wanuskewin Heritage Park gathered to announce the donation from professional service firm Deloitte.

Campaign officials said they have raised approximately two thirds of the $40 million. The money will be used to renovate the interpretive centre, grow the park’s land base so a herd of plains bison can be reintroduced, expand educational offerings and expand the park’s conference hosting abilities.
