Simcoe Hall
Know Human Trafficking
Abilities Centre
In 2023, we launched a three-year partnership with the Abilities Centre, a local organization that exists to unlock potential through accessibility. The partnership focuses on monetary and in-kind donations of services to support the Abilities Centre’s Employment & Skills Development Services, which helps individuals to develop and maintain the knowledge and skills required to thrive in the workplace.
Black Business Catalyst Project
In celebration of Black History Month 2024, our team embarked on a reality TV journey. We invited four local Black entrepeneurs into our office for a five-week transformative experience, providing our e-commerce services free of charge with the goal of helping them elevate their businesses. You can watch the Telly award-winning web series here.
Ontario Parasport Games
In 2023, the Ontario Parasport Games were held in the Durham Region, with many events taking place at the Abilities Centre in Whitby. We were honoured to sponsor and support the Games as a Gold Partner, which included the opportunity to present medals on-ice to the incredible Wheelchair Curling athletes.
Simcoe Hall
Located on Oshawa, Ontario, Simcoe Hall supports the Durham Region through their food bank, after-school support and seniors’ programs, all designed to provide wellness opportunities to families and individuals in need. We actively support Simcoe Hall with fundraising efforts and donation drives throughout the year, and with many of our CPG client partners who graciously donate their products to the food bank.
Know Human Trafficking
The Know Human Trafficking Campaign, presented in partnership with Big Rig Wraps and the Ontario Truck Training Academy, aims to raise public awareness about human trafficking and educate people about how they can help those at risk. As part of the campaign, we had the opportunity to sponsor a truck wrap, adding to the campaign’s fleet and helping to spread awareness about this crime throughout the Durham Region and far beyond.
