Philanthropy

Our company has been heavily involved in philanthropy since its founding.

Its founder Chris Ecklund is known for his philanthropic activities across Canada as well.

What is not known to most is what we have been involved in as we have been very quiet about this.

However we will post some of the charitable aspects as they present themselves.
