Western Financial Group Communities Foundation Celebrates 20th Anniversary

Communities foundation donates $20000

The Western Financial Group Communities Foundation is celebrating its 20th anniversary. It is a major milestone for our Foundation, as over the past 20 years they have contributed over $4 million to communities across Canada. This year we are celebrating the 20th anniversary with some of our most impactful stories, as well as launching the 20th Anniversary Giveback Campaign.


20 Amazing Years | 20 Givebacks to our communities

To express gratitude to everyone who has been part of this journey the Foundation will celebrate by giving back $1,000 to 20 different charities, which have been selected by our local team members across Canada.

Laurette LaPlante, Director of the Wester Financial Group Communities Foundation, said: “Community is the heart and soul of our employees and the basis of what The Western Financial Group Communities Foundation is all about. I am very honoured to be a part of a company that shares the values that are important to me and proud to be celebrating 20 years of giving.”

Western Financial Group has over 180 branches across Canada and takes great pride in supporting the communities where our customers and employees live through impactful donations and volunteering efforts that truly make a difference.
