Connections beyond the workplaceThe archived Community Builders program highlighted the people behind the company and the local causes they supported. It offered a reminder that communication begins with participation.
Practical help in local communities
The archive described a finance team volunteering on a Habitat for Humanity project, teams in Calgary and Vancouver joining street hockey events for food banks, and a leadership group assembling bicycles for a women’s shelter.
A broader culture of participation
Other stories covered grocery and food-bank volunteering, school improvements, support for children, and fundraising connected with cancer and multiple sclerosis. These are historical examples from the original program.
Tell community stories with care
A strong community story centers the people and the work. Explain the contribution specifically, obtain permission for images and quotes, and let the organization receiving support describe the difference it makes.
