Responsible Investment
In 2018, Annapolis formally adopted a Responsible Investment Policy. All front office team members have completed the requirements and exams for the Responsible Investment Fundamentals course from the Principles for Responsible Investment Academy.
Recent amendments to Canada’s Competition Act have created significant uncertainty regarding environmental disclosure. Until this uncertainty is considerably reduced or eliminated, all additional environmental disclosure has been removed from this website.
Charitable Initiatives
Charitable giving has been a priority for Annapolis, and, since inception, Annapolis has donated over $3.5 million to various local and international charities. Annapolis makes donations corporately and, as part of a unique employee benefits program, provides each employee with an annual charitable donation allowance which the employees can direct to any registered charity or charities of their choosing. Over the years, Annapolis has donated to over 200 local and international charities. Support is directed to organizations that make a difference, both in our community and throughout the world. Annapolis has placed a particular emphasis on supporting initiatives that focus on women, children and health, firstly in our local community but also internationally.
In addition to donations, Annapolis employees are active in their communities volunteering with various organizations. Annapolis employees are serving or recently served as trustees or directors of The William & Mary Foundation, William & Mary Center for Energy Law and Policy, Alberta Indigenous Opportunities Corporation, Lionheart Foundation, Adolescent Mental Wellness Foundation and are volunteering with several local children’s sports organizations, community organizations and other charities.
A few of the organizations we have supported and in some cases been involved with over the years include:
Lionheart Foundation, based in Calgary, Alberta, is focused on the mental health and well‐being of children and adolescents of all genders (and their families) who suffer from anxiety based mental health challenges. The foundation subsidizes families in need of access to counselling and is committed to building capacity in the community by providing education and training to therapists, health care workers and support professionals.
Water Wells Project – UNICEF works to improve access to safe water and sanitation facilities in schools and communities, while promoting safe hygiene practices, in more than 100 countries around the world. Since 1990, more than 1.8 billion people gained access to improved drinking water through UNICEF’s efforts. Over time, Annapolis has purchased over 190 water wells during the holiday season on behalf of investee companies.
Operation Eyesight has provided sight saving treatment and blindness prevention to millions of people for 50 years. Today, Operation Eyesight is directly active in India and the African nations of Ghana, Kenya, Rwanda and Zambia, investing in sustainable treatment, prevention and community development activities to address specific problems as well as the root causes of blindness. Annapolis has purchased over 3,900 sight restoration surgeries in the third world and done so in the name of investee companies as gifts during the holiday season.
The Canadian Red Cross’ mission is to improve the lives of vulnerable people by mobilizing the power of humanity in Canada and around the world and is part of the largest humanitarian network in the world, the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. Much of Annapolis’ funding for crises relief for flooding, forest fires, community displacement and hunger are directed through the Canadian Red Cross.
