Community
Maple Leaf Foods is committed to fulfilling its role as a responsible citizen and believes in giving something back to the communities in which it operates. In this regard our purpose is two-fold:
 |
Our business earns the respect and loyalty of our employees, customers and the communities in which they reside; and, |
|
More importantly, it improves our society and the well being of its citizens. |
Maple Leaf Foods has been designated as a "Caring Company" by the Canadian Centre for Philanthropy through their IMAGINE program. This means we donate, as a minimum, one per cent of pre-tax profits to worthy causes in the form of both cash and in-kind gifts. Our philanthropic giving focuses on three sectors:
|
Effective health research and services |
|
Community and social services programs |
|
Education, particularly in the area of food nutrition research |
Canada Bread is a proud supporter of the United Way whose mission it is “to improve ties and build community by engaging individuals and mobilizing collective action”.
