Community Investment
Purpose and Progress
To build and strengthen relationships, Husky’s Community Investment program supports charitable organizations in the regions where the Company operates. Priority funding areas include education and training, health and wellness, and community building initiatives.
The Company works with municipal, Aboriginal and business leaders, and charitable organizations to identify community needs.
Husky’s employees in these communities are actively involved with local organizations and groups, helping to improve the quality of life for their neighbours.
