Overview

Wheaton Precious Metals is committed to helping build healthy, vibrant communities. Through Wheaton’s community investment program, we dedicate a portion of our net income to charitable organizations and initiatives that help improve and strengthen communities both locally and internationally. Our community investment program has two components: the partner community investment program, which has an international focus and the local community investment program, which supports organizations in the communities where our offices are located. A dedicated Community Investment Committee comprised of members of our senior management team oversees the program. Initiated in 2014, the partner program is designed to help the mining communities where our partners operate.

quotes Wheaton Precious Metals is proudly the first of its peers in the streaming/royalty space to initiate such programs.

Since 2014, Wheaton has contributed over US$32 million to community programs and initiatives. While financial support is important, we also recognize that it is necessary to offer helping hands. Wheaton Precious Metals encourages its employees to contribute their time, resources, and skills to charitable organizations through volunteering and participation in fundraisers, community events, and related activities. This approach maximizes our ability to truly make a difference and allows for employees to pursue causes that are important to them.

Through purposeful investments, strategic partnerships, and employee engagement, Wheaton creates value and helps build stronger communities worldwide.
