Arts, Civic and Social Services are the central building blocks of our communities. We are committed to being a good neighbour to those in the communities where we live and work, which includes supporting the organizations below.
Communities where we live and work
We are the Presenting Sponsor of the Arts Commons National Geographic Live speaker series. Using award-winning photographs and video, these storytellers share adventures from the field, reporting on a wide range of human interest and conservation topics and sharing messages of exploration and discovery to inspire adult and student audiences.
Brown Bagging for Calgary’s Kids (BB4CK) is a local charity that makes and delivers healthy school lunches for students in kindergarten to grade 12 each day. Throughout the year, we offer volunteer opportunities for our staff to spend a morning helping with lunch preparations. We are proud to be long-time partners and friends of BB4CK, providing assistance through employee volunteer hours and financial support, helping to ensure no kids go hungry.
Since 2009, ConocoPhillips Canada has been a proud supporter of the Drop-In (DI) Centre, with our staff volunteers serving meals to the residents throughout this time. The DI programs help people regain independence (when possible) and advocate for people who require exceptional medical, mental, and day-to-day support to be successful in the community.
Since 2009, we have been a proud supporter of Dreams Take Flight, a national charity that provides children who have experienced medical, physical or emotional and mental trauma with a trip to Disneyland. Throughout the year we provide financial support, gifts-in-kind and employee volunteer hours to support this magic-making organization.
We have a long-standing relationship with Radiance Society and are proud to provide financial support, gifts-in-kind and employee volunteer hours to their work in the community. Radiance’s services include operating the Radiance Centre, a second-stage shelter serving women and children affected by domestic violence, and the Radiance Children’s Centre, which offers specialized care for children living at Radiance Centre and from the community.
We are pleased to support the annual Huskies Fill the Bus Food Drive. This food drive continues to be a significant contributor to the Salvation Army's Food Bank fundraising and their ability to provide assistance to those in need in the Fort St. John community.
Because no one should go hungry, we support the Wood Buffalo Food Bank’s Mobile Pantry Program, which addresses geographically isolated, low-income communities, where residents experience chronic hunger and food insecurity.
ConocoPhillips Canada is a proud supporter of the Calgary Food Bank. The Calgary Food Bank is the first line of emergency food support for people facing crisis. As the city’s main charitable food hub and the most accessible food bank, they have the capacity to serve families, individuals and organizations to fight hunger.
The Vertical Slam Ultimate Challege is a running race (5, 10, and 21 kilometres) near Fort St. John, British Columbia. This race is a fundraising effort that raises and then distributes funds equally to food programs in all 22 schools in School District 60. ConocoPhillips Canada is proud to support this initiative, and our staff look forward to participating every year!
