Community Investment

We care about being an active member in our communities.

We believe our role as an engaged corporate community partner is to support our communities’ ability to improve their social, economic and environmental situation. We rely on our people in each of their individual communities - wherever we work, live and play - to tell us what is most needed and where we can have the most impact. 

Giving back isn’t always about cutting a cheque. It’s about making an investment with our time and talent too.  That’s why we support our communities in a few different ways:

Donations, Sponsorships and In-Kind Contributions

In 2017, Enerplus contributed over $732,000 to support our communities through partnerships with non-profit organizations and matching employee giving.

Volunteerism

Each year, our people spend countless hours supporting their communities through Enerplus-organized initiatives and on their own time.

We encourage employee volunteerism by offering one paid day specifically for volunteering, and through our annual Non-profit Bonus contest. Supporting employee volunteerism is a visible way we live our values and culture.

Our pillars of giving focus our support where it can have the greatest impact

We take a proactive approach to corporate giving, looking for partners whose mandates align with our pillars rather than waiting for requests to come to us. We assess our partner relationships on an annual basis so that we know we’re supporting them the best way possible – we want people to feel like their community is better with Enerplus as a part of it.
