Since opening our doors more than a century ago, we have been active participants in our communities.
At every level of our organization and across every office around the world, our professionals and staff have a personal commitment to giving back to the communities in which they live and work.
It's why we've been recognized multiple times with the CIBC's 'Spirit of Leadership' Community Award, bestowed annually to partner organizations that demonstrate distinctive corporate giving and community spirit.
Our people are supported by the Firm's charitable giving programs that allow for flexible work hours and the responsible use of office resources, staff expertise and time, as well as logistics and event support.
Gowlings' professionals regularly donate their time and resources to a wide variety of social, health, community and legal causes including:
- The United Way
- The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation
- The Stephen Lewis Foundation
- Dignitas International
- Raise-a-Reader
|
- Habitat for Humanity
- Artumas Africa Foundation
- Calgary Urban Project Society
- Sick Kids Foundation
- Second Harvest
- Sun Youth Organization
|
Our commitment to our communities goes beyond the provision of time and resources. Our professionals regularly donate their professional skills to persons or groups of limited means under various pro bono law programs.
Around the world, many of our professionals lend their talent and expertise as directors or board members of not-for-profit organizations.
