Social responsibility

We've been growing alongside the Peace for over 75 years. Giving back is part of who we are. 

​How we give back

​​​​From member dividends and student bursaries to our Community Social Responsibility Fund, giving back is in our DNA. In fact, it's so important to us we'll often come along on the day to help at your events.
