Our customers are also our neighbours, associates, friends and family. The schools we serve are the same schools that teach our own children. The businesses we serve are the same businesses that serve us as customers. The hospitals, police departments, governments and civic organizations we serve are also the same ones that care for and protect the communities we live in, too. For all these reasons, we have a personal interest in helping make those communities better places to work and live. It’s a responsibility we take to heart. Healthy thriving communities depend on involved citizens, organizations and corporate partners for momentum. We lend our support and services to causes that promote civic pride, economic development and revitalization. The total amount of this scholarship is $5,000 – this amount will be selected and divided evenly between the number of this year’s eligible students. The application deadline is August 30. Giving guidelines These guidelines outline the programs that Waste Management is most motivated to support: Environment - The environment affects all aspects of our lives, from the air we breathe, to the way we power our homes, to the parklands in which we play. Waste Management is committed to helping provide renewable resources to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, and to conserving and maintaining wetlands, wildlife habitats and green spaces for people's enjoyment. Understanding the importance of the environment, Waste Management supports organizations and programs that preserve and/or enhance natural resources. Causes important to the areas where we operate - Waste Management is committed to enhancing our communities through programs that help make them cleaner and better places to live. Local Waste Management facilities are proactive in identifying charities located in the immediate community that they serve and, in many cases, may have predetermined which organizations they will be supporting that year.
