Corporate social responsibility

Atura Power is committed to building and maintaining strong relationships with each of our host communities.

Sponsorships, Donations and Community Events

Atura Power supports our local communities through our Community Citizenship program. Past donations have included food banks, homeless shelters, and community events. In addition, our employees have raised funds for Movember and Walk a Mile in Her Shoes through in-house campaigns and collected toys for holiday toy drives and participated in food bank drives.

Halton Hills GS, Portlands EC and Brighton Beach GS stations provide support for community initiatives that mirror our core values. Napanee GS has a Host Community Agreement in place that provides funding annually to the Town of Greater Napanee community.

Funding criteria focuses on:

Education
Health & Safety
Environment/Biodiversity
Humanitarian need
Science & Technology
Arts & Culture
Climate Change
Equity, Diversity & Inclusion

In 2020, Atura Power’s inaugural year, we generously supported our host communities with close to $100,000 in charitable and in-kind donations.

Brighton Beach

In 2020 our Brighton Beach plant supported Windsor Goodfellows, the Welcome Centre Shelter for Women & Families and the Windsor / Essex County Food Bank with donations. The plant also donated expired fire extinguishers to the St. Clair College Firefighter Education and Training program for training purposes.

Halton Hills

Our Halton Hills plant contributed to the Georgetown Bread Basket and the Georgetown Lions Club Santa Claus Parade.

Napanee

Atura Power's host agreement with Greater Napanee includes a Community Development Fund to help fund community projects. For more information, see the Napanee Community Development Fund.

The Napanee plant supported the Salvation Army Napanee Food Bank, Community Foundation of Lennox & Addington, Hospice Lennox and Addington, United Empire Loyalist Heritage Centre and Park and the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 137 in 2020. In addition, the plant donated scrap metal with proceeds going to the food bank.
