As marketers of a product that is essentially good for our bodies and enhances life overall, we've discovered numerous opportunities to think outside of work, employing our energies in support of communities and the lives of others.

New this year Oppenheimer has joined the American Diabetes Association as a national sponsor of the “I Decide To Fight Diabetes” campaign. Oppenheimer will champion the cause of diabetes by encouraging consumers to choose to incorporate fresh fruits and vegetables into every meal. Throughout 2008, ADA and Oppenheimer will work together to create awareness in retail stores through point of sale and other educational materials. Full Story

We are active supporters of the ‘Fruits and Veggies, More Matters’ and 5 to 10 A Day for better health campaigns in the U.S. and Canada, encouraging better health and nutrition through increased consumption of fruits and vegetables.

The Oppenheimer Group and its employees support many charities in the communities where they work.

Since 2002, we have hosted a United Way campaign in our Vancouver headquarters. This weeklong fundraiser has grown significantly year-on-year.

We also participate in various charity races including the Vancouver Sun Run, BC Children’s hospital – Child Run, Run for the Cure, American Diabetes Association’s Tour de Cure, and the Delaware Marathon. These events encourage community involvement and active lifestyles.

We also make regular contributions to local food banks in an effort to ease the issue of hunger in the communities where we operate.
