Helping kids get ahead by providing access to educational programs is something we really believe in. It not only helps them, but it helps the entire community. Bright kids mean a bright future.

A Summer of Discovery
		Our Discovery Quest Program helps students learn about and propose solutions to environmental issues. In partnership with Acadia University, over 40 high-achieving students from across the region travel to Acadia each summer for one week, gaining a deeper understanding of themselves and the world in which they live.
Concerts in the Classroom
		Quartet in the Classroom brings Symphony NB musicians into Greater Saint John schools for classroom concerts. More than 10,000 kids a year get to experience live music, as well as learn about the instruments and the musicians who play them.
Helping Curiosity Grow
		We believe in nurturing a child’s curiosity. That’s why we support a variety of educational programming for children in New England, including Portsmouth Children’s Museum, Strawbery Banke Museum, and New Hampshire Public Television (NHPTV).
Fueling the Future
		Each week at St. John the Baptist-King Edward School, over 90 of our employees and alumni volunteer to help mentor and support the students and staff. Since 2002, we've provided students with new computers, playground equipment, a new sound system in the gym, and much needed supplies.
Rewarding Bright Young Minds
		We’re helping students in our local communities through several scholarship programs such as the Irving Oil Outstanding Student of the Year Scholarships, Irving Oil Scholarships at Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN), and the Primrose Scholarship.
United with Universities
		We’re proud to support our universities, contributing to programs and donating facilities. Learn more about our contributions at Acadia University, University of New Brunswick, University of Prince Edward Island, and Babson College.
