Our Focus: Empowering Indigenous Communities of Canada

By directing efforts towards economic and social issues relevant to our region, we can create better conditions for both our team and our company. We’ve decided to focus our efforts on empowering indigenous communities of Canada. More specifically:

Skills development for Indigenous Youth
Indigenous Conservation Initiatives in Canada

2021 Social Responsibility Year in Review

That's the equivalent of heating your entire home for almost a year and a half

Offset Our Carbon Footprint

Andgo is carbon neutral as of 2021 🎉 We committed to offsetting over 100% of our estimated CO-2 emissions with the Coastal First Nations/Great Bear Rainforest Carbon Credit Initiative.

Prioritize Socially Responsible Procurement

We introduced new procedures for assessing product life cycle when purchasing for Andgo. We committed to prioritizing purchasing local, sustainable, and ethical products first.

Some of the local vendors we supported include:

Road Coffee, Escape Sports, SaskMade Marketplace, Fable Ice Cream, Darkside Donuts, 9 mile legacy, Bill’s House of Flowers, Michelle’s Flowers, Harden & Huyse, The Bagel Shop, Prism Coffee, Hometown Diner, and more.

Andgo is open to working with other vendors who prioritize social responsibility. Feel free to reach out!

Invest in our Community Through Charitable Giving

Andgo committed to further increasing our donations to charitable organizations throughout our home city. Our donations were focused around community health and well being, and skills development for Indigenous youth.

Charities We Supported

Skills Development for Indigenous Youth

Saskatchewan Indian Institute of Technology: One year full tuition scholarship for a Nursing Student (our contributions matched by the government of Saskatchewan)
6-week Technology Bootcamp for Indigenous Youth in Partnership with the Saskatoon Tribal Council and the University of Saskatchewan

Level Up Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

We conducted two DEI surveys intended to measure employee sense of inclusiveness, respect, diversity, and belonging within the organization. We also completed an internal review of DEI at Andgo to determine which areas we should focus on throughout the year.
