Community Involvement

Surge Energy is a supporter of community engagement and recognizes the importance of supporting charitable organizations and the communities in which we operate in. Surge proudly supports worthwhile causes that fall into the main categories of helping people in need, building community relations; and/or achieving excellence for sports, arts, science or education. Surge strives to meet the goals of the corporation’s Corporate Donation/Community Involvement Policy and has appointed 4 internal individuals to lead the process. Surge sets an annual budget to ensure a suitable level of “giving back” is achieved.

Surge achieves its community involvement and charitable support in a variety of ways ranging from; in house initiatives, volunteer outings, multiyear charitable commitments, event sponsorships and annual fundraising campaigns.
Surge has been fortunate enough to engage its employees in a wide range of volunteer opportunities.

Below are some highlights from special projects Surge has partnered with:

Surge Energy is a proud supporter of The Calgary United Way and host an annual fundraising campaign each November. This event is one of the many ways we like to give back to the community each year and all proceeds from the event go directly to The United Way. This annual campaign is run by employee volunteers and always contains some type of community involvement; i.e. an impact speaker from the community or a volunteer day with a UW organization.
