Social sustainability
Building community
Our impact on the community is central in our decision making. In our dedication to sustainability, it’s important we take action that improves the greater regional community. We’re doing the right things right for our communities.
Investing in our community
Our Community Investment Program supports organizations that build community spirit, provide long-term benefits and enhance the region’s quality of life.
One of the ways we support our community partners is through in-kind sponsorship.
EIA is a prime location for community organizations to spread their messages to a large audience.
We prioritize projects, groups, and events that focus on aviation education and heritage, as well as tourism and trade promotion.

Showcasing local talent
We take our tagline — we’ll move you — literally and figuratively. One of the ways we move people is through music and art.
Supporting community events and festivals
EIA also provides financial and promotional support to community organizations and initiatives that help make our community a great place to live, work and play.
With the support of our partners over the years, EIA has raised over $795,000 for local Edmonton and area charities through our annual Charity Golf Classic. This year, we expect to eclipse the $1,000,000 mark.
EIA is a supporter and participant in Edmonton’s two premier summer festivals, K-Days and Heritage Days. We are also very proud to support Canada’s Armed Services, who are honoured every November 11 in EIA’s Remembrance Day ceremonies.
Sustainable procurement
We realize the importance of our supply chain. We look to use our purchasing power to buy what has the best value for the company as well as eco and social consciousness. We are expanding our efforts in this space and aim to promote local businesses with diverse ownership.
