HPA in the Community
The Halifax Port Authority (HPA) is proud to be an active member of the community in which we live and work. Here's how we contribute:
- We donate our time, expertise and financial resources to a wide range of community organizations: charities, cultural groups, and skills-development organizations
- Our staff actively participates in fundraising activities each year
- Port contingency plans, safety and environmental initiatives, educational programs, and marine and landside security benefit commercial shipping and the local community alike
In 2006 we surveyed employees and stakeholders about what causes we should be supporting with our community investment program. Through this process two areas were selected, the environment and arts & culture.
In 2007 we are proud to sponsor the following organizations:
- Atlantic Film Festival, presenting sponsor of the alFresco filmFesto
- Clean Nova Scotia's Ship to Shore Program, click here to read a recent article about the program
