Supporting Our Community

Supporting Charitable Causes

We have helped our clients support their charitable causes with a financial donation of $10,000 per year since 2008. Modeled after Oprah Winfrey's "Pay it forward" segment, we asked our clients to submit their ideas on how they would use $1,000 to improve the lives of someone close to home or around the world. All of the submitted entries are judged independently by a panel and 10 of the entries each receive a $1,000 donation for their idea.

Each Fall we hold a client reception and invite the winners to speak about how their donation impacted the recipients. The stories we hear are absolutely amazing and we are always impressed with the impact that our client's ideas have both locally and in many international areas.

 2016 Entries!

We would like to thank all our clients who submitted their entry for this years Share the Green initiative. It is always rewarding and uplifting to read about the many great charities around the world that our clients support. This year we awarded the following clients with a cheque for $1,000 each to give to support their entry:

• Jack and Dianne Geurkink
• Diane Hatfield
• Marlow Gingerich
• Jan Vicars
• Marg Johnson
• Eleanor and Ken Shrubsall
