10% reinvested every year in community partnerships to bring our purpose to life.
We know that some challenges are bigger than any single player can solve. That’s why we collaborate with local partners to tackle larger systemic issues, ensuring that we’re part of solutions supporting people and businesses nationwide.
By reinvesting 10% of our budgeted bottom line each year into local projects and initiatives, Coast Capital actively supports the communities where we live, work, and play.
That’s just one of the ways that we’re building a stronger, more resilient Canada together.

EQUITABLE EMPLOYMENT
We’re building and championing more equitable and inclusive employment in our communities.
The labour market is changing rapidly, and people in Canada are struggling to keep up. A growing dependency on part-time jobs and gig work presents new opportunities and challenges. However, without stable employment and flexible hours, many find it challenging to save for their future and their families.
At Coast Capital, we believe a better future for people in Canada requires reliable, living-wage employment. We’re working hard to build the best, most inclusive workplace for our employees and champion equitable employment in the community through partnerships like the BC Centre for Ability Thrive Program.
