Giving Back

At Highwood Crossing Foods, we believe corporations need to be responsible for their actions – socially, ethically, and environmentally. One of the ways our company can achieve this, is by giving back to the community in which we live and work.

To this end, these are some of the groups that we support with our time and resources:

• High River Food Rescue (Wild Rose Community Connections)
• High River Salvation Army Food Bank
• Food For Thought – High River
• High River Hospital Foundation
• Habitat for Humanity – High River
• Okotoks Food Bank
• The Calgary Food Bank
• Seeds of Diversity
• Slow Food International
• Alberta Cancer Foundation
• Rotary Club of High River
• Rotary Foundation

We are also pleased to support the Foothills Advocacy in Motion Society (FAIMS), a local association that provides employment opportunities for adults with disabilities.

We are members of Slow Food Calgary, Alberta Food Processors Association, Organic Alberta.

As volunteers, we have served on the Calgary Food Committee, a group established to undertake a Food System Assessment and Action Plan for the City of Calgary; the National Board of Directors of COG; the National Expert Committee on Organic Agriculture; Literacy for Life Society; MDP Steering Committee for the Municipal District of Foothills; and the Board of Directors for Community Futures: Highwood Business Development Corporation.
