Looking ahead to 2026
The priorities on this page are fictional planning examples, not approved Northstar commitments. A published version should distinguish confirmed commitments from ideas still under consideration and identify the locations or audiences each applies to.
Example areas to consider
Illustrative options for planning, not a promise of funding or eligibility.
Local food access
Example planning idea: explore whether employee volunteering or company support could complement established local food programs.
- Confirm participating locations and partner interest before announcing an opportunity.
Practical skills sharing
Example planning idea: assess whether teams can share job-related skills through partner-led community sessions.
- Agree the audience, safety arrangements, and partner approval before scheduling.
Accessible participation
Example planning idea: review how event timing and location affect office and frontline employee access.
- State eligibility and participation details in each event listing.
