CALGARY, Nov. 1, 2016 /CNW/ - Pembina Pipeline Corporation's
("Pembina" or the "Company") (TSX: PPL; NYSE: PBA) 2016 Calgary United Way campaign reached new heights this year, raising a grand
total of $2.89 million, making it the most successful United Way campaign in the Company's history.
This year's campaign will support a network of United Way agencies that provide vital social services across the city.
"Pembina has been a strong supporter of United Way for nearly 30 years and their generosity and
commitment continue to be inspiring," said Lucy Miller, President and CEO of United Way of
Calgary and Area. "Leadership from companies like Pembina help us
to invest in essential community programs and services that create a better future for all Calgarians."
Pembina is committed to supporting the communities it serves by working with organizations like
United Way. Each year, Pembina strives to exceed its participation and fundraising goal from the
previous year. Campaign highlights include a dollar-for-dollar corporate match for employee pledges, workplace fundraising
events, and company volunteer opportunities. In addition to this being a record-setting year for financial contributions, 91
percent of Pembina staff participated in the campaign and volunteered over 232 hours.
Each of Pembina's field offices also run fundraising campaigns that have surpassed their
contribution and volunteering goals, and so far in 2016 Pembina staff have raised a total of $3.2
million across the Company's operations in Alberta, British
Columbia and Ontario for local United Ways and charitable organizations.
"It's easy to give when times are good, but it demonstrates real care and commitment to give when times are tough," said
Mick Dilger, Pembina's President and CEO and the Co-Chair of the
2016 Calgary United Way Campaign. "The fact that so many Pembina employees, contractors, retirees
and members of the Board of Directors are dedicated to keeping the community strong and giving back to those less fortunate really
speaks volumes about the people who work at this company. Their generosity comes at a critical time for our city and will have a
tremendous impact."
Pembina is proud to be one of Calgary's largest supporters of
the United Way.
