Supporting Calgary Meals on Wheels

December 5, 2024

On December 3, we proudly sponsored Calgary Meals on Wheels (CMOW) – GivingTuesday for the sixth consecutive year, and matched day-of donations up to $10,000.  

We’re excited to announce that this year, we were able to help CMOW surpass their goal and raise over $35,000 in a single day in support of its mission to deliver nutritious, reliable and accessible food to Calgarians. Thanks to the incredible generosity of the community, the money raised will go towards providing over one million meals to Calgarians in need next year. 

But we didn’t stop there! Thirty-six (the most we’ve ever had!) employee volunteers from our Calgary offices covered 13 routes delivering meals to CMOW clients around the city.  

We are grateful to partner again with Graham as the matching donor for our GivingTuesday campaign. With food insecurity affecting 1 in 4 Albertan households, Graham’s commitment to helping people in need is inspiring, and we are so pleased that our supporters rallied alongside them on December 3rd to raise funds for our important and much needed service.” Karen McKeogh, Manager of Charitable Initiatives and Strategic Engagement
