Classrooms for Africa
In 2008, one of our founding partners, Bob Morton, helped to start Classrooms for Africa, a charitable society that provides direct assistance to communities in sub-Saharan Africa who want to provide education to disadvantaged children in their communities.
Since 2008, Silvacom has directly funded over 40 school projects in Africa including the building of classroom blocks, dormitories and kitchens.
On an annual basis, representatives from Silvacom (including staff members selected after an application and vetting process) travel to Africa to visit Silvacom-funded projects and report back to the whole team.

Making A Difference in Canada
We support an increasing number of local and national causes in many different ways. These include the United Way, Stars Alberta, the MS Society, the Heart and Stroke Foundation, the Mental Health Association, Ronald McDonald House, the Alzheimer’s Association, Children’s Miracle Network, Compassion Canada, Plan Canada and more.
Growing the Urban Forest
We are a longtime supporter of ‘Root for Trees’ - Edmonton's tree planting initiative. Each year, a group of volunteers from Silvacom takes part in the program by heading out and planting trees around the city of Edmonton. As a company heavily involved in the forest industry we are very passionate about helping to grow our local urban forest.

In-House Donation Drives
One way we like to give back is by having in-house donation drives to support local and worthy causes. Examples include summer BBQs with an entry ‘fee’ of a food bank donation, winter coat drives for ‘Coats for Kids and Families’, toy drives for Santa’s Anonymous, baby formula drives for the Bissell Centre, and toiletry drives for the Wings of Providence Second Stage Shelter.
