The BC Hydro Power Pioneers Association carries on a tradition going back over 80 years to the days of B.C. Electric and B.C. Power Commission.

Today, we have 15 regional branches representing over 6,000 retirees and their spouses throughout B.C.

Meet Our Executive Team

Our Motto

Do. Give. Connect. Supporting our communities, building meaningful connections and having fun every step of the way. We collaborate with our partners including BC Hydro, B.C. Children’s Hospital, local hospitals, Gluu Society, schools, charities and non-profit organizations.

Our Fun Side

Throughout the year we host numerous fun and engaging activities to keep our members connected, inspired and active including lunches with guest speakers, walks, hikes, tours, group travel experiences, bowling, golf and the popular annual Christmas luncheons.

Our Impact

With nearly 2000 Power Pioneer members, we record over 100,000 hours each year volunteering in our communities. Together, we've raised more than $1.8 million through the Miracle Millions Campaign for BC Children's Hospital and $1.9 million through our Annual Giving Campaign supporting the BC Hydro Employee Campaign in partnership with United Way.
