GOLDCORP DONATES $10 MILLION TO SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY ARTS CENTRE
IN VANCOUVER
September 23, 2010 � Vancouver, BC � Goldcorp Inc. (�Goldcorp�) (NYSE:GG, TSX:G) today announced a $10 million donation to the Simon Fraser University downtown campus. The gift will help Simon Fraser University contribute to the social, economic and cultural revitalization of Vancouver�s Downtown Eastside. To acknowledge the gift, the university�s new arts complex in the Woodward�s redevelopment will be named the Goldcorp Centre for the Arts.
Five million dollars will support the university�s capital campaign and ensure that state-of-the-art teaching and performance facilities are available for student, community and professional arts groups. The other $5 million will be placed in the Goldcorp Centre for the Arts Community Endowment to support programs aimed at community engagement in the Downtown Eastside community.
�Goldcorp is committed to making a positive difference here in Vancouver as well as those communities where we operate our mines,� said Goldcorp President and Chief Executive Officer, Chuck Jeannes. �Vancouver�s Downtown Eastside has become one of Canada�s most depressed neighbourhoods, and we are optimistic that by working with Simon Fraser University, we will be able to reach out to its businesses and residents to help create a more sustainable future.�
SFU president Andrew Petter is enthusiastic about the opportunities that the Goldcorp endowment will provide for the university to strengthen its ties with the community. �This gift will ensure that our Contemporary Arts program is not just located in the Downtown Eastside, but also is a vital and contributing member of the neighbourhood. It will enable us to offer new programs that are specially tailored to the needs of the local community.�
The Goldcorp Centre for the Arts is the latest addition to SFU�s vibrant downtown campus and home to SFU Contemporary Arts. It will serve as a centre for creative discovery, dialogue and collaboration in a broad range of artistic disciplines and will exemplify SFU�s commitment to benefitting the communities it serves by delivering programs that are student centred, research driven and community engaged.
