Charitable giving has always been at the heart of Cresco’s core values, so much so, last year we launched the “Cresco Cares Committee”. Cresco Cares meets quarterly to discuss and plan charitable initiatives from fundraising to volunteering opportunities. Working together on these efforts has fostered deep commitment and friendship within the team and our community. Nurturing this fellowship in giving has proven to be an invaluable tool for success in all aspects of our business.
The focus on last year’s fundraising efforts went towards the Make-A-Wish Canada charity. With your help, we are pleased to announce we raised a total of $11,635. This money will be used to grant a special wish to a brave young girl named Mikah. We are grateful to grant this wish and are waiting to hear how Mikah and her family will use it.
Here are some other ways Cresco has supported our community in 2021:
- Donated to the Ryan Chen Memorial Foundation Fund
- Donation and sponsorship of the Supreme Windows amateur golf classic in support of the Calgary Rotary Club’s Stay-In-School program
- Delivered backpacks and supplies to Calgary families through the Victory Outreach program
- Hand delivered freshly baked apple pies to the Providence Seniors Care Center for Thanksgiving
- Sponsored the Tournament of Aces in support of Big Hill Haven
- Built and delivered 4 children’s bicycles to the Calgary Firefighters Toy Association
- Adopted two Calgary families in the Closer to Home Adopt-a-Family program
We really want to thank all of you, our extended Cresco Community for giving us this opportunity to help and support all these great causes.
