Community Investment Program

At Parex, we are committed to making a positive impact and sharing the benefits of our success in the communities where we live and work.

Parex Shares is our Calgary-based Community Investment Program, designed to uplift and transform communities through three core components: Giving, Helping, and Matching.

Giving:
Enriching lives through corporate investment

Supporting not-for-profit organizations and community initiatives that address critical needs in the community and

are aligned with one of our strategic pillars:

  • Sustainable Communities
  • Actions for the Planet
  • Economic Development

In Calgary and Colombia, we are committed to local giving. Through corporate donations and sponsorships to community organizations, we work to achieve benefits for all.

Helping:
Empowering employees to be active in the community

Encouraging employees to get out into the community with their teams and support causes that are important to them. 

In addition to our employee kick-off event, teams are encouraged to join together and volunteer for organizations making a difference in our community.

 

Matching:
Amplifying impact by matching dollar for dollar

Matching employee donations to Canadian charitable organizations and registered non-for-profits of an employee’s choice.   

Parex will match employee donations to a registered charity to a limit of $1000/employee year.
