Boucherville, QC- From September 1 to 30, some 270 Lowe’s, RONA, and Reno-Depot stores across the country raised funds to help a non-profit organization or public school of their choice—heroes in their communities—fulfill its mission or carry out a specific project.

Thanks to employee initiatives, customer generosity, and corporate donations, more than $1.2 million will be distributed to over 245 community organizations across the country.

In Red Deer, two local organizations, will collectively receive over $11,000.

Lowe’s Red Deer raised $6,378 for the Central Alberta Humane Society and $5,383 was raised at RONA Red Deer (North) for the Boys and Girls Club of Red Deer and District.

For the second year in a row, the total amount given back as part of the campaign has exceeded $1 million. “The Lowe’s Canada Heroes Campaign’s success goes beyond the sums presented,” said Jean-Sébastien Lamoureux, Senior Vice-President. “It lies in our employees’ and customers’ high level of engagement towards helping those who play a positive role in their communities.”
