The cooperative principle of Concern for Community is one that CREC employees take very seriously. Officially launched in July 2018, Cuivre Cares (#cuivrecares) offer employees opportunities to unite inside and outside of work and give back to the community. CREC employees are dedicated to making a difference in our communities by raising money and volunteering their time for charitable programs such as:
