We believe in staying connected to the communities we serve. The Terasen Gas Community Relations team supports the unique needs and strengths of your community. We do that by meeting, listening, talking and working together. Some of the groups we meet with and support include:

Terasen Gas Kids Strategy Program teaches children and their parents about natural gas safety. Since the program started in 2006, our employees have educated close to 5,000 students (Kindergarten to Grade 3) around the province. Children learn about the fundamentals of natural gas – where it comes from, how to use it, conserve it and how to be safe around it.

 

Terasen Gas Crosswalk Kids Program is in its fourth year in the Lower Mainland and Interior. Presented to schools located within 200 metres of a natural gas right-of-way, the classroom-based safety curriculum teaches kids about what’s located in marked right-of-ways and how to stay safe in them. After the presentation, schools receive a specially designed pair of crosswalk markers – outfitted with wheels – to help keep kids safe on their way to and from school.

 

The Terasen Jr. website is a fun and interactive way to teach kids about natural gas safety, science and the environment. In addition to the web-based content, the Terasen Jr. program includes scratch ‘n’ sniff stickers, bookmarks and activity books.

Whether it’s a financial contribution, hands-on labour, or identifying a community group in need, employees provide selfless assistance in many creative ways. It all goes a long way towards making our communities a better place to live for all. Here’s how they give:
