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.
