      Mackenzie Together

      We’re invested in creating a more inclusive world for all. Our Mackenzie Together community platform is dedicated to this goal, with a specific focus on supporting the economic empowerment of women in the communities where we live and work.

      Our Community Impact

      Building a more inclusive world means supporting causes across Canada in order to have an impact. It means empowering our people to support the organizations they care about and forging strong partnerships with community groups. In 2024, our collective impact was felt in communities near and far.
