Community Investment

Edmonton International Airport (EIA) is dedicated to creating moving experiences for our region by supporting organizations that benefit and improve the communities we serve. Our Community Investment Program supports organizations that build community spirit, provide long-term benefits and enhance the region's quality of life.

One of the ways we support our community partners is through in-kind sponsorship. Over the years, EIA has invested in countless major community projects, initiatives and major events. Current sponsorship and partnership initiatives include:

EIA is proud to support the United Way of Canada, which improves lives and builds community by engaging individuals and mobilizing collective action.

Other past, present and future sponsorship and partnership initiatives include:

Edmonton International Airport is a prime location for community-minded organizations to spread their messages to a large and growing audience of national and international visitors, as well as Edmonton-area residents. The advertising opportunities offered through our in-kind sponsorship program will help drive the success of community-wide events and programs.

Our priority when assessing sponsorship opportunities is to support projects, groups and events that focus on aviation education and heritage, as well as tourism and trade promotion.

We are proud to partner with groups that make our community a better place to live and work. We want to move our communities by sharing our success, allowing our growth to truly benefit our region.

EIA, its employees and managers are committed to building safer and stronger communities. Our community-relations efforts focus on aviation education and heritage and the development of business, trade and tourism. Executives and employees of EIA sit on a number of industry and regional development bodies and participate in trade shows promoting the Edmonton region across Canada and beyond. Edmonton Airports also supports airlines in marketing Edmonton and new destinations.

We provide guest speakers and make presentations to business and community organizations. And as the gateway to the Capital Region, EIA can help make a positive first impression for your visiting delegations.
