The best thing about us is you!
For 18 years, the Western Communities Foundation, the charitable arm of Western Financial Group, has been caring for the communities where our people live, work and play through our four giving programs: Infrastructure and Matching Grants, Goal Achievers Community program and our Western Inspirational Awards.
Thanks to our employees, customers, friends, family and local organizations, we have contributed more than $3.6 million to hundreds of local projects and initiatives that our communities and our people care about.
Our communities value the support we provide and we are flourishing because of your passion and dedication. Through the creation of new parks, libraries, community centres or the acquisition of new equipment, tools and resources, we are providing local opportunities for growth, revitilization, safe spaces and education.
We are proud of the work we are doing to make our communities better. I’m especially proud of the passion and dedication of our people at Western and our friends in the community who have made the Foundation’s work possible. In this report, we share stories of your work in action.
It is because of you that we have been so successful; thank you for being part of our story. I look forward to continuing to create strong and vibrant communities with you.
