The company made a 3-year, $4 million pledge (that provides a further $1.75 million to be donated in 2021) to support United Way agencies with the delivery of critical services for food and income security, mental health and isolated seniors. The company also donated $1.2 million to 24 hospitals in the GTA to assist with sourcing critical equipment and supplies to provide healthcare for COVID-19 patients.
