Investing in communities
Impact lending and investing
We use your deposits to lend to and invest in local businesses, organizations and initiatives that create positive economic, social and environmental impacts in your community.
Stories of impact
Our stories go beyond the facts and figures to paint a picture of the financial, social and environmental impact we help create.
Grants
Since 1994 Vancity has distributed $287 million to members through dividends and to communities through grants and community investment initiatives.
Sponsorship
We welcome the opportunity to sponsor initiatives that support local, natural, and organic food, energy and the environment, Aboriginal communities and affordable housing.
Partnerships
Our many partnerships with community organizations, such as the Vancity Community Foundation, enable us to help realize the vision and full potential of our community in all its diversity.
