Adding Energy to the Community

We care about being an active partner in our communities.

We want our neighbours to know we are ready to give our support and our employees to know they are working for a company that believes in giving back.

A few of the ways we support our communities through donations, sponsorships, in-kind contributions and the volunteer efforts of our people. We focus our support on our four pillars of giving:

• Healthcare and Research (supporting medical research, treatment of illness and well-being);
• Education (supporting a strong future for our industry through education initiatives);
• Safety and Environment (supporting programs that improve health, safety and the environment); and
• Community Living (supporting programs that improve quality of life in our communities).

We actively build on our existing relationships with community partners where we live and work, with the intent to support healthy, sustainable communities. In 2016, Enerplus contributed over $550,000 to support our communities through donations and sponsorships. 

Working on an applied research project is like a job interview in some ways. Our students often continue working with the industry partner on the applied research initiative after graduation. Their productivity as an employee is almost instantaneous.
