]]>The month of Movember when we raise awareness about men’s health issues has come and gone! We’re very thankful to everyone who participated, donated, grew a Mo’, had a health conversation, went in for their annual health check, and in any other way supported this important cause. With the tremendous support given to our Movember Teams across the country, collectively we have raised over $45,000 (and counting). This includes a generous corporate donation of over $13,000. We’re very proud of our Movember network of 188 participants and the impact everyone’s efforts are and will have on our communities and men’s health in Canada!

]]>As we flip the calendar to the final month of 2022, we’re proud to look back on another great example of our staff’s ability to support a great cause and the communities we live in.
Led by the tremendous generosity and enthusiasm of over 163 Movember participants and passionate volunteers, many of our offices planned and hosted a variety of events including mini-golf tournaments, virtual bingo, bake sales, raffles, Speakeasy Workshops, and World Cup Soccer events, to collectively raise over $46,000 (and counting)! On top of this, a corporate donation of $12,225 ($75 per participant) added to our grand total, helping Associated place first in Canadian Engineering Firm Challenge for the second year in a row!
Special honours go to our Edmonton-based team for the highest (pre-corporate donation) fundraising amount ($7,585) among all of our regional teams, despite having one of the smaller number of participants. This year, our top individual fundraiser, Andrew Stewart, achieved the title for the second year in a row, by raising over $3,600!
Thank you to everyone who donated to the Movember cause so generously!

]]>Supporting the United Way and their annual fundraising campaign is a long-time effort that staff in our offices have contributed to over many years. Despite the ongoing challenges faced by us all, our dedicated colleagues once again developed fun and engaging activities for us to enjoy and together we raised funds for this great cause. The incredible generosity of our staff resulted in a total of $60,640 being raised!
The campaigns were held virtually once again this year and led by our creative United Way committees. With the heartwarming support of our staff, our combined contribution will aid those living in poverty and help to build better communities.
