With a clear purpose to ‘create prosperity for generations,’ building and maintaining positive relationships with the local community is fundamental to the success of Port of Aberdeen.
We support with local charities and community group to provide project funding, as well as support with time, resources, or equipment, to help those most in need.
We will also support colleagues with raising funds for charity and community projects, as well as addressing ad hoc requests that we receive from charities and community groups across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.
It’s important to us that our funding has impact.
As society innovates and technology advances, the importance of inspiring the next generation into Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) careers continues to grow. Port of Aberdeen partnered with Aberdeen Science Centre to expand its capacity for delivering STEM community engagement sessions.
Between May 2023 and March 2024, 181 children and 85 adults attended 12 community sessions which explored chemical reactions, discovering geology, and overcoming engineering challenges. The sessions increased attendees’ STEM skills and knowledge, while building social skills in teamwork, communication, and problem solving.
Get in touch if you’d like to discuss potential opportunities for your local charity or community group to partner with Port of Aberdeen.
