YouthHQ and BGC Red Deer are pleased to announce a generous gift from the Home Depot Canada Foundation. Our local Red Deer Home Depot store efforts raised $10,194.28 with the Home Depot Canada Foundation contributing an additional $5,500.00 for a total gift of $15,694.28.
“The Home Depot Canada Foundation is proud of our associates for their hard work and dedication throughout the campaign and how all our stores embraced the last-minute extension of the campaign despite everything going on. We also wanted to recognize how difficult the back half of the year has been with Covid-19 and as a result, The Home Depot Canada Foundation has increased their commitment by giving their partner a $2K grant but we have increased that grant to $5,500 per store for a total investment of $1,001,000!” states Devon Montemurro, Community Investment Specialist, Home Depot Canada Foundation.
As a result of all of this, The Home Depot Canada Foundation is proud to say we will be disbursing $2,072,790 to 124 different youth serving charity partners.
“Youth HQ and BGC Red Deer & District would like to extend our gratitude to the staff team at Home Depot Red Deer (store #7131) for all their efforts throughout the annual Orange Door Campaign in support of housing and hope for homeless and vulnerable youth. We greatly value the commitment and efforts by our local Home Depot and the Home Depot Canada Foundation for making a difference in the lives of the youth we serve in Red Deer and area.” states Rob Lewis, Executive Director, Youth HQ.
