Celebrating Filipino Culture and Heritage, Trico was pleased to be a sponsor of this year’s virtual event, which showcased Filipino folk dances from different regions of the Philippines.

The Beltline Urban Mural Project (BUMP) is an award winning community-driven project to showcase art, promote tourism, improve the public realm and build community spirit in Calgary. Now entering its fourth year, BUMP has curated a diverse portfolio of local, national and international artists who have created eye-catching, inspiring and beautiful murals in Calgary. The project continues to expand with the 2020 BUMP Festival celebrating art, music and community.

Trico helped fund this community-organized project, created to enhance Fairview’s existing amenity space. The Fairview Pump Track is also the first asphalt pump track in the city designed for use by bikers and skateboarders.

Like so many of you, as we face the daily challenges that grip the entire world as a result of COVID-19 we find ourselves looking for small moments of joy, connection and comfort. Whether it's a listening to a sonnet, watching a funny video, doing yoga, or baking bread, these acts are gifts that soothe those parts of us that are suffering, and help us to brave another day marked by uncertainty, loneliness and loss.

Trico was proud to provide our support to Fairchild Radio’s 22th Anniversary and the Founded in Family Photo Contest.

Since 2017, Trico has sponsored the Youth Scholarship Award, which recognizes the achievements and contributions made by youth immigrants in Calgary. Our founder Wayne Chiu was also proud to be the Keynote Speaker this year.

When Mount Royal University’s Institute for Innovation and Entrepreneurship and Institute for Community Prosperity had the bold idea to open a co-working space on campus to encourage collaboration between student and community changemakers, there was one obvious partner for the endeavour – Trico. After an initial meeting with Wayne Chiu and Dan Overall from the Trico Foundation, we knew we had found passionate partners that would help us make a positive, sustainable impact on our community. Trico Homes has been impacting people and communities for 25 years and the Foundation has amplified that impact even further. We feel immensely grateful to have an organization in our community that embodies change making values and is so willing to invest time and resources into making a positive change on us all.

Congratulations to Trico Homes and its founder Mr. Wayne Chiu on Trico Homes’ 25th Anniversary and best wishes for every success in years to come.

I have known and done business with Wayne and Trico Homes for over 20 years. During that time we have either participated in areas as two of several builders, as shareholders or as Joint Venture Partners in other areas. Over the 20 years this has included some 15 or more developments in Calgary and Area. During those various business ventures I have found Wayne to be of highest integrity, a partner who paid their share, was always open to discussion and who sold at fair market value to maintain the integrity of the area. I have always experienced Wayne’s’ business style as being honourably competitive, and a person with whom I have shared a mutually respectful relationship. Most of all, I consider Wayne a good friend who I could trust to always be honest in our business and personal relationship.
