BURNABY, B.C. — Pledging to support customers and organizations in need through difficult times, Taiga Building Products has created the Taiga Community Fund. The charity, says the building products distributor, has “the express purpose of giving back to the communities where we live and work. We recognize the tremendous effect that COVID has had on our neighbours and families, so we created a fund worth $110,000 and asked our people to build a plan to support organizations in their backyard that could use some help,” the company said.
Recipients have been in every province, including Abbotsford Food Bank, Kelowna’s Women’s Shelter and Coast Mental Health in British Columbia, the Arthouse for Children and Youth and Children’s Aid Foundation of Halton in Ontario; and the Big Brothers Big Sisters Foundations in both Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.
