About Us The Calgary Compact brings together socially-responsible individuals, organizations and businesses from a diverse interest-base in order to foster dialogue, increase understanding and generate cooperation towards a more sustainable livelihood. We will accomplish this by actively networking, effectively sharing information and coordinating collaboration. We are a non-profit initiative, completely volunteer-driven, and socially and environmentally conscious in our activities. The main goals of The Calgary Compact are: 1. To strengthen a community of socially-responsible businesses and organizations. 2. To encourage sustainable behaviour and practices driven by consumers and community participation. 3. To connect citizens with opportunities to support and advance a socially-responsible society. The CC is a local network inspired by the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC). We work with local businesses, organizations and citizens that wish to align their strategies, activities and efforts with greater social responsibility and sustainability principles. Financial support for the initial development of the Calgary Compact and the Conscious Consumer has been generously provided by the United Nations Association in Canada - Calgary Branch, and by Momentum. Our Board of Directors We are a non-profit, completely volunteer-driven initiative. We have already assembled a great team of innovators and dreamers to guide the Calgary Compact. We are also looking for other volunteers to join us in building, strengthening and promoting a more socially responsible and sustainable Calgary! The Calgary Compact is governed by a Board of Directors that meets regularly to review strategy and benchmark progress. The Board works to help the Calgary Compact achieve its vision, and consists of members with representation from non-profit, small business, corporate, and interested citizens: Keith Hlewka Haoming Huang - Treasurer Kristi Peters Snider - Secretary Leo Wong - Chairperson
