Schering-Plough Canada, now a part of Merck, believes that its responsibility
as a corporation extends beyond its primary business, which is to respond to
health needs of society through the discovery and development of innovative
medicines and vaccines. Our mission entails something more — not only are we
committed to the health, safety and well being of the people who take our
medicines, but also to our employees, neighbors and others in the communities in
which we have a presence. We cannot succeed as a business unless we live up to
this promise.
The philanthropic outreach of Merck is guided by three strategic priorities:
advance scientific knowledge and education, improve health care for Canadians,
and support communities.
We will evaluate requests for financial support that are aligned with our
strategic priorities further described in our Corporate Philanthropy
Policy.
