Making a difference where it’s needed most

 

At RBC Dominion Securities, we know that “community” is something we all create. As individuals, families, businesses, and partners, our contributions to our community come back to us in spades, and enrich the lives of everyone in our region. We are always involved in activities, events, and causes that benefit Maple Ridge. Here are a few of the organizations we support.

RBC Blue Water Project

Launched in 2007, the RBC Blue Water Project is a 10-year global commitment of $50 million to help protect fresh water. To date, RBC has pledged over $38 million to more than 650 charitable organizations worldwide that protect watersheds and promote access to clean drinking water, with an additional $7.8 million pledged to universities for water programs. Staff from our branch participate by cleaning up the shorelines of Crescent Beach.
