We know the growth and success of local business is critical to the overall vitality of our communities. In 2021, more good things are happening through our Simple Generosity program – including making donations to organizations that do good things for local businesses and entrepreneurs.
Throughout October and November, we’re making good for business donations to organizations that offer support and assistance to local businesses and entrepreneurs. We believe every business should have the opportunity to thrive, no matter how big or small.
We believe in the power of partnership, working together to achieve social impact and make a difference in our communities.
Learn more about Simple Generosity
Over the past year, we’ve seen people, businesses and non-profits cope with new demands and challenges. For many, it’s been harder to thrive and we want to help alleviate financial hardship through the power of community-helping-community.
In 2021, our Simple Generosity program is magnifying it’s impact by adding a million-dollar giving program, and we've completed two waves already. You can participate in our thriving minds campaign right now, with one final wave of support still coming later this year.
Recently, we asked you to share stories about how your family thrives together. Hundreds of comments inspired us to pay-it-forward with community donations.
Through the comments of kindness you left on our social media posts, we’ve paid $87,500 forward to over 228 different charities who serve our communities and help them thrive.
Through our #LearningPotential giving program we donated to 14 charities, schools, and foundations that are helping members of our community, from our littles to our seniors, grow their learning potential!
Everything is easier with a little help.
We acknowledge that we have the privilege of doing business on the traditional and unceded territory of First Nations communities.
