CORPORATE PARTNERSHIPS

Our corporate partners are local and international businesses based in the West Island of Montreal who are choosing to include the welfare of their community as part of their corporate objectives. They play an important role in our mission to build a strong, resilient, inclusive and healthy West Island community. Not only do they support us financially, their employees are generous with their time and expertise. Many of them volunteer for Community Shares or one of the 40+ community groups we support. Giving back to the community is a big part of their corporate culture. Our corporate partnership levels vary between $5,000 and $100,000 annually. 


During the pandemic, our partners recognized the critical role we play for the West Island, and we’re so proud to say that not only have we not lost any of our corporate partners, we have welcomed 9 new ones!
