Community Engagement & Giving Back
In 2024, Modern Niagara’s strong commitment to community engagement played a pivotal role in our success. Over 350 employees volunteered for local charities during our Community Day, and we made a lasting impact nationwide by participating in regional initiatives such as Steps for Life and the Seniors Secret Service of Alberta’s gift-giving efforts.
Our sustainability achievements were also significant. By installing EV charging stations at our regional offices, we reduced carbon emissions by 100,000 kg. Our continued partnership with the Rideau Valley Conservation Foundation has now helped protect lands and sequester over 178,000 tonnes of CO2. We also set a sustainability benchmark by decarbonizing our 945 Princess Street facility, turning it into an innovation hub.
We are immensely grateful to our employees, partners, and clients for their continued dedication and support. Through their efforts, we were able to commit to social responsibility by making donations to True North Aid among eleven other organizations, including Habitat for Humanity and Canadian Blood Services.
We look forward to building on this momentum, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has contributed to our shared success. Together, we aim to inspire others and create a sustainable, inclusive future.
