Wyeth in the Community

In addition to producing prescription and over-the-counter medications that help Canadians manage many different types
of illness, Wyeth is committed to being a good corporate citizen and giving back to the community. Wyeth is also a strong supporter of research and development activities in universities across Canada.

Wyeth's vision is to lead the way to a healthier world-not only through the drugs we develop and market, but also by being an excellent corporate citizen. Wyeth is committed to Canadian research and the development of talented Canadian researchers. Our partnerships with Canadian universities, the Canadian Institutes for Health Research, and the health care community, along with our charitable donations, are testimony to Wyeth's commitment to improving the life of Canadians.

Partnerships for a better world

At Wyeth Canada, we strongly believe it is our responsibility to enrich the communities in which we work and live. As one of Canada's oldest pharmaceutical companies, we have been improving the lives of Canadians for many years through our innovative health care products and an enduring involvement in our community.

In Canada, Wyeth's global vision of leading the way to a healthier world includes a commitment to support front-line organizations dedicated to creating stronger, healthier communities. Building and sustaining charitable partnerships enables us to ensure our company's resources are put to work right where they are needed most.

Through financial contributions, product donations, sponsorships, and employee-driven community initiatives, Wyeth Canada provided more than $485,000 in 2008 to individuals and organizations in need. Through our partnerships, we are able to provide ongoing support to a range of critical health care and social service work being delivered in our communities, including The Hospital for Sick Children, The United Way, Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Canada, Centraide Canada and The Canadian Cancer Society.

Worldwide, our company's largest gifts involve the donation of pharmaceutical products. Wyeth works with major international aid organizations, like Health Partners International, to bring health care services and medicines to victims of poverty, war and natural disasters.

In Canada and around the world, improving the health of our communities is a goal shared by all. Wyeth and its employees will continue to be dedicated to community involvement and support and to building charitable partnerships that improve lives.

For Wyeth, leading the way to a healthier world begins today - one community at a time.
