But more than that, it\u2019s the cornerstone of what it means to be part of the AMA family: having the peace of mind that someone always has your back.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The impact is clear. Since this unique program was launched, we\u2019ve helped more than 9,800 new Albertans feel at home in our province, with a 98% increase in 2024 alone. We\u2019ve done this by partnering with more than 40 trusted organizations, connecting with new Canadians as soon as they arrive.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2024, we also introduced a HelloAlberta community on the AMA Mobile App. In its first nine months, the online group attracted more than 1,200 members, helping us better connect with newcomers and helping newcomers better connect with each other.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\"><strong>Albertans caring for Albertans\u2014no matter where in the world their journey began.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/helloalberta-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-180 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/helloalberta-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/helloalberta-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/helloalberta-768x513.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/helloalberta-1536x1025.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/helloalberta-2048x1367.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile is-vertically-aligned-top is-style-img-ripple-bottom\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/humankind-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-183 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/humankind-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/humankind-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/humankind-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/humankind-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/2024\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/humankind.jpeg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Humankind<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At AMA, we talk a lot about living and working with purpose. At the heart of that commitment is giving back to our community\u2014not just as an organization but as individuals. HumanKind, our online giving program, is one of the ways we support our staff in doing that. It empowers our employees to share the causes they care about, lead fundraising efforts, identify volunteering opportunities, and track their philanthropic efforts across the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2024, the energy was contagious\u2014sparking ideas, initiatives, and movements that spread throughout our community. Each effort was a testament to our shared belief that change isn\u2019t something to wait for\u2014it\u2019s something we create together. These included:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Shift Swaps:<\/strong> employees set aside their day-to-day responsibilities to support members in everything from fraud prevention (Shredding events) to vehicle maintenance (Car Care events) to waste reduction (Electronics Recycling events).&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Volunteer Days:<\/strong> every employee gets 7.5 hours of paid time each year to support a cause that tugs on their heart.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Personal Donations:<\/strong> our employees love to give where they live. In 2024, this included more than 80 diverse causes\u2014from Jasper wildfire-relief efforts to Alberta food banks to cancer research.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large style-svg desktop-only\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/HumanKind-1.svg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-374\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large style-svg mobile-only\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/archive-impact.ama.ab.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/01\/HumanKind-mobile-1.svg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-377\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile media-bottom\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AMA Community Foundation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/amacommunityfoundation.org\/\">The AMA Community Foundation<\/a> was introduced in late 2023 to create meaningful, sustainable change for future generations of Albertans.
