Since the launch of the program, Trade Electric has raised $1,310.00 which will be divided and donated to our three charities.
The money raised has come from Catalog sales as well as an internal charity drive.
Take the B'Mer for lunch
Our recent internal charity efforts involved an auction with Our Senior Vice President offering his car (a 2007 BMW 550i)
and $50.00 for lunch to be shared with a colleague during an extended lunch hour. The way the auction worked was anyone who wanted
to win gathered in a circle to throw down as many toonies as needed to win. The person who threw down the last toonie before the
flag was raised won the prize. The event brought in many participants and all together we raised $468. The eventual winner
was Wendy Odel, who took the car for a ride across town and enjoyed a meal with a friend - on Trade!
Our Charities
Trade has partnered with three charities for its Corporate Donations. The three charities are
The Heart and Stroke Foundation, Make A Wish and the Toronto Daily Bread Food Bank. All donations received from the Catalog for
Charities program or from internal charity drives will be distributed equally between the three organizations. Together we will
be supporting vital research in heart disease, eliminating the need for food banks, making it possible for a child to dream.
