Supporting Women Across the Organization: What We Can Do As Leaders

Changing the dynamic for women in the workplace means upsetting the status quo. This includes knocking down the different "rules" for men and women regarding advancement in their careers. Changing the perception of driven women in the workplace-acknowledging their contributions, strengths, and performance equitably-promotes a well-rounded workforce and therefore a more successful operation.

Finding a Voice for Rwandan Healthcare

For more than a decade, Health Development Initiative (HDI), a local health organization located on the outskirts of Kigali, has attended to the critical and often taboo health needs of underrepresented Rwandans including the poor and LGBTQ communities. In Rwanda, participating in sexual activity as a youth, a sex worker, or a homosexual – HDI’s target healthcare recipients – is either illegal or so heavily stigmatized that it can destroy lives and fracture communities. Therefore, seeking – and providing – care for these individuals can be a risky endeavor.

School Is Expensive, We Can Help

Whether starting university or college for the first time, or returning to school to learn a new trade, paying for education can be challenging, especially when costs can vary from $5,000 to $50,000 per year. That’s one of the reasons why we launched the TransCanada Community Scholarships Program last year — to help students from the communities where we live, work and operate across North America reach their academic goals.
