December 01 2020 - 2:39PM
Media Advisory – TC Energy Corporation (TSX, NYSE: TRP) (TC Energy)
announced that, throughout 2020, it has proudly donated more than
C$5.2 million to non-profit organizations impacted by the COVID-19
pandemic across North America, including more than C$1 million to
support non-profit organizations this holiday season.
Through its giving initiatives, TC Energy aims to help
non-profit organizations thrive and instill a sense of unity among
its workforce and communities.
“Early in the pandemic, we recognized the immense challenges
that were ahead in the communities where we live and work,” said
Russ Girling, President and CEO, TC Energy. “As a company, we were
quick to identify that we have an important role to play in
supporting non-profit organizations in a meaningful way. We are
proud to partner with organizations to help build community
resilience, capacity and support during these challenging
times.”
Most recently, TC Energy cancelled all in-person holiday
celebrations as part of its COVID-19 response. Instead, they
redirected the funds budgeted for holiday parties and gave all
members of its workforce – more than 8,400 people across North
America – funds to donate to the causes that mean the most to them
in their communities. With a high percentage of employee
participation and an overwhelming organic social media response,
the initiative clearly resonated with TC Energy’s workforce and
their communities.
TC Energy also made corporate donations to organizations that
address food insecurity in the U.S., Canada and Mexico including:
Houston Food Bank, Feeding America, Manna Meal Inc., Calgary Food
Bank, Breakfast Club of Canada, Asociacion Mexicana De Bancos De
Alimentos and the Mexican Red Cross.
TC Energy will continue its giving efforts throughout 2020 and
into the new year.
