At the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority, we work proactively to be a good neighbour, inspiring community connections, fostering relationships with First Nations, and upholding safety and security. One of the ways we work to create strong, vibrant port communities is with our community investment program. Through this program, we support, sponsor, and donate to important initiatives in our surrounding communities.
Our community investment program will launch in early 2025. Please check back in December to learn more.
