Corporate Social Responsibility

Integrity. Accountability. Purpose. Empowering Communities, Protecting Futures.

Our Approach

At Raven Rae Resilience (RRR), we believe resilience is not just about what we do in high-risk environments — it’s also about how we give back, lead by example, and uplift communities where we live and work. Our values of integrity, accountability, and purpose help to connect stakeholders to understand the depth of our commitment.

 

Our acts towards ensuring our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) help move our mission forward. Through these initiatives, RRR demonstrated that its role in fragile environments extends well beyond security. By combining endurance, fundraising, and operational support, we created tangible improvements in health, shelter, and dignity for vulnerable populations. Safer communities begin with stronger ties.

Giving Back: The Perth Polar Bear Plunge

Raven Rae Resilience is proud to support the Perth Polar Bear Plunge, an annual community tradition founded in 1993 Perth Ontaio, Canada  and hosted by our President, David T. Lavery. Every year, David and the RRR team contribute time, energy, and financial support to this event, which raises funds for meaningful causes and brings people together in the spirit of resilience and giving.

Supporting Family Entrepreneurship: CoCaBee

Beyond global operations and community events, Raven Rae Resilience also champions entrepreneurship at the grassroots level. Our President, David T. Lavery, proudly supports his daughter’s company CoCaBee, a Canadian start-up focused on organic, sustainable lip balms and skincare products.

Through financial support, mentorship, and active promotion, David continues to invest in CoCaBee’s growth and mission. This reflects our belief that resilience also means fostering innovation, sustainability, and self-reliance within our own communities and families.

By supporting small, women-led businesses like CoCaBee, RRR demonstrates that CSR is not limited to corporate programs, but is also about empowering individuals to pursue meaningful, eco-friendly ventures.

Supporting Animal Welfare and Health: Nowzad & Zwan Family Charity

In 2014, RRR hosted the Nowzad Charity Doggy 24 Hour Marathon Run/Walk in Kabul, with David Lavery completing the solo marathon to raise funds for Nowzad Dogs Animal Shelter Afghanistan. Over 70% of entry fees went directly to Nowzad’s operations, supporting their mission of rescuing, rehabilitating, and caring for animals in Afghanistan.

Humanitarian Support: Zwan Family Charity

RRR partnered with Zwan Family Charity to deliver high-impact humanitarian aid in Kabul. David led ultra-marathons, including the ‘Keep Qambar Warm’ 24-hour run, raising funds to purchase and distribute over 1,000 tarpaulins for displaced families in the Qambar IDP Camp, PD5 Kabul. These tarps were later handed out directly to families, with RRR staff supporting logistics, security, and event management. RRR also co-organized fundraisers with Zwan to raise money for two Afghan sisters, Deba and Nageena, suffering from Thalassemia, aiming to secure $100,000 for bone marrow transplants. RRR also  supported vaccine and flu-shot programs for underprivileged communities, helping provide critical healthcare access in Kabul.
