Jan 23, 2026 | 1:44 PM

Northwestern Alberta Foundation has partnered with CSV Midstream Solutions to launch a new community investment fund.

The Creating Shared Value Fund is expected to establish an ongoing source of funding for people working to strengthen communities in the areas surrounding CSV’s Albright Facility.

“This fund represents what is possible when industry and community come together with a shared commitment to long-term impact,” said Laura LaValley, CEO of Northwestern Alberta Foundation “Through this partnership with CSV Midstream Solutions, we are able to invest directly in local priorities and support initiatives that reflect the needs and aspirations of the people who live and work in this region.”

Officials say fund recipients will be selected by a guiding committee of local leaders that bring firsthand knowledge of the region and can identify opportunities where support can make a difference.

“At CSV, Creating Shared Value means recognizing our responsibility to the communities where we operate,” added Daniel Clarke, President and CEO of CSV Midstream Solutions. “The Albright facility is part of this region’s landscape and economy, and this fund is one way we commit a portion of that facility’s success to locally led projects that strengthen the surrounding communities.”

More information about eligibility, application timelines, and funding priorities will be available through the Northwestern Alberta Foundation.
