Community is one of our core values at Tritech. We are committed to fostering a sense of community within our company, and we extend that commitment to giving back to the people and the places where we work. We are fortunate that our growth in recent years has made it possible for us to contribute even more to the causes close to our hearts, both locally and internationally.

In keeping with our work, a particular focus for us is helping to provide clean water for people around the world.  We proudly support Water for People (WFP), a non-profit organization that brings clean water to people in less economically developed countries. Since 2013. Tritech has been a steadfast sponsor of WFP, contributing both financially and through active participation in organizing the Vancouver Water for People annual golf tournament, where we encourage our employees and industry partners as well to get involved in the cause. Our employees have also participated in local fundraising events for other water focused charities like Run for Water, an Abbotsford based non-profit society dedicated to organizing running events in BC to help raise money for clean drinking water.

To encourage further technological advances in Tritech’s area of specialization, Tritech previously pledged support to the RES’EAU-WaterNET program at the University of British Columbia over the course of 5 years from 2015. The RES’EAU-WaterNET program is Canada’s first and only organization devoted exclusively to developing innovative water treatment technologies for small, rural and first nations communities.

In addition to giving to causes related to water infrastructure, we also give back to the communities where we work in other ways. Our employees may spend several years living where we are completing a job, so these communities become our communities.

Most recently with our completed project with the Ahousaht Nation, Tritech collaborated with Dolan Concrete, Hazelwood Contracting and the Ahousaht First Nation to build a Totem Pole for the opening of their new Wastewater Treatment Plant, showcasing our commitment to local partnerships and cultural preservation. Additionally, we supported the community’s other local events, such as sponsoring the Maaqtusiis Secondary school Girls Basketball team tournament in Hawaii and Maaqtusiis Jr. Boys Basketball team, further demonstrating our dedication to youth development and sportsmanship.

In Canmore and Banff, where we have also completed a number of projects, Tritech gave a significant contribution during the Banff Canmore 2014 Alberta Winter Games, the largest donation in the event’s history.
