What is Proud of Our People, Our Business, Our Community?

At Chances Dawson Creek, we recognize that our volunteer efforts and presence in the community is as integral to our business as the operation itself.

As a member of the Great Canadian Entertainment family, Chances Dawson Creek is humbled by the opportunity be an active community partner in Dawson Creek and the region.

PROUD of our people, our business, our community is Chances Dawson Creek’s brand that represents our community, volunteering and social responsibility efforts. Simply put, we are PROUD of the positive difference that Chances Dawson Creek can make by supporting local organizations either through time, resources or talent.

PROUD of our people

Our PROUD employee volunteer program allows us as an organization to recognize, encourage and most importantly reward the efforts of our colleagues who volunteer and support their communities. It is because of their charitable endeavours and desire to help their community that we are able to achieve our goal which is to positively impact the various needs, causes and projects that matter the most in our communities.

PROUD of our business

Every year, Great Canadian Entertainment invests over $2 million in communities across the country. Chances Dawson Creek’s PROUD community activities, countless volunteer hours and hundreds of events and fundraisers support this contribution and directly impacts local groups and those that they help.

PROUD of our community

Here is just a short list of some of the charitable organizations and projects Chances Dawson Creek has recently supported:

  • ALS
  • Dawson Creek Fall Fair and Exhibition
  • Dawson Creek Hospital Foundation
  • South Peace Community Resources Society

 

 

 

Become a PROUD Chances Dawson Creek Community Partner

To help grow our PROUD commitment, we are always looking for opportunities to work with community leaders and organizations that effect positive change, in whatever capacity would be most valuable to them. Here are some common principles and values we look for in a PROUD community partner.

Partnership Criteria:

 

  • We look to support groups and organizations whose mandate is local and whose work has a direct impact on their community.
  • To create healthy and active relationships in our community, we strive for partnerships rather than a sponsorship.
  • We value an organization’s diversity of programs they offer in support of their community.
  • We expect groups and organizations to employ sound financial practices and sustainable funding tactics.

We encourage registered charities and non-profit organizations to contact us if they feel they are consistent with these principles, but regrettably we cannot support religious, political or advocacy groups, individual fundraising pursuits, or organizations that are inconsistent with our values.

 

Where the Money Goes

In British Columbia, approximately two-thirds of gross gaming revenue from the gaming facilities goes directly back to the government, through the BC Lottery Corporation, for the purpose of supporting programs like healthcare, education and social services. The remaining one-third of gaming revenue is retained by service providers, such as Great Canadian Entertainment, to pay for wages, building costs, taxes and other operational services.

 

 

 

How We Can Help

One of the ways Chances Dawson Creek supports its community is by hosting various fundraiser events that bring people together and help raise money for an important and meaningful cause.

If you’re part of a local organization whose work and diversity of programs are dedicated to the community, we would be happy to review your community partnership request.

  • Fundraising Events
