Community-led fundraising events are a wonderful opportunity for you to get your friends, family, or coworkers engaged in raising funds and awareness for Calgary Homeless Foundation. Get inspired by reading more about some of our amazing community donors.
Every donor helps us get closer to a world where all people can live safe, healthy lives with hope for the future.
The partnerships featured here are all innovative in their own right: some are longstanding, and some are new; some are visible, while others operate behind the scenes. But all of them have made a difference.
greengate Garden Centers
greengate Garden Centres and Calgary Homeless Foundation have been growing hope together since 2003.
During the holiday season, greengate rallies their customers to provide winter wear, toiletries and grocery gift cards. In 2020, greengate will donate 100 per cent of the proceeds from sales of select holiday décor to Calgary Homeless Foundation. In the spring, greengate also sells Hope for Humanity roses and donates the proceeds to the foundation.
“We would never have been able to do all that we do without community support,” Harington Telford, Vice-President of Marketing at greengate, says, citing it as a reason greengate continues to support Calgary Homeless Foundation.
He adds, “As long as we work together and do the best we can, we will all be OK.”
