Our Key Initiatives
Mobilization for Centraide
Every year, for more than 25 years, Énergir and its employees have generously participated in Centraide’s annual campaign. In February 2025, this commitment was recognized with a Solidaire Award. During the most recent campaign last spring, this mobilization helped raise over $430,000!
The Ruelle de l’avenir: Supporting Academic Persévérance
Énergir, co-founder of the Ruelle de l'avenir, has supported this unique project since 2008. Each year, hundreds of primary and secondary school children from the Centre-Sud and Hochelaga-Maisonneuve neighborhoods are involved in their learning and academic success.
Holiday Baskets: A Tradition of Solidarity at Énergir
Since 1983, Énergir teams have mobilized to support underprivileged families in the Centre-Sud and Hochelaga-Maisonneuve neighborhoods by providing 300 food baskets each year. They take care of fundraising, food preparation, and delivery.
Sponsorship of École Baril
Located in the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve neighborhood, École Baril has enjoyed a privileged partnership with Énergir for several years. A dedicated committee of employees organizes various activities to enrich the daily lives of the children, such as a Christmas party for the younger students and a career day for the older students. In addition, the committee ensures that any children in need receive occasional assistance throughout the year.
Volunteering, in Énergir's DNA
Volunteering is part of Énergir’s DNA. We give beyond donations: we invest and we commit ourselves. Volunteering is not only embedded in Énergir’s culture, but it is actively encouraged. Since May 2025, a dedicated payroll code has enabled the tracking and recognition of time donated during working hours. Since then, more than 800 hours of volunteering have been reported.
Atout Cœur: Encouraging and Supporting Employee Engagement
Through its Atout Cœur program, Énergir encourages employees who give back to their communities by making a donation to the organization with which they are involved
