Giving Back
Lifeways of Canada is proud to be part of the vibrant community of Calgary. We believe that contributing to the society in which you live is an important part of community membership. To that end, in addition to personal giving, Lifeways and its staff contribute to projects that help build public awareness of archaeology, and that help make Calgary and Alberta better places for their citizens. Lifeways continues to make contributions to groups such as the Archaeological Society of Alberta and the Association of Consulting Archaeologists for publications, local conferences and scholarship initiatives, as well as to groups like the University of Calgary for sponsorship of events such as the Chacmool Conference. In 2017, Lifeways staff organized the Rocky Mountain Anthropological Conference held in Canmore. In the past we have also offered tours of archaeological sites in the Province for auction by charity groups, most notably the CBC Petro-Canada Food Bank drive, to help raise money for worthy causes. In 2019 we helped sponsor a team from the Siksika First Nation in the Canadian Indian Relay Racing Championships.
