What a great way to wrap up a busy July for the staff at Creative Roots in Âé¶čAV.
The staff celebrated monthâs end by donating $3,000 to .
âWe are growing so fast this year and just canât keep up with some of the things we need,â explained Angie Lohr, president and co-founder of HOPE Okanagan, a group that provides night-time outreach to homeless and/or sexually exploited women in Âé¶čAVâs downtown core.
HOPE also offers a safe house/recovery house to women.
The 17-person staff at Creative Roots Landscaping each donates one hour of their time every week to contribute to the companyâs Community Give Back fund.
They then choose a charity to benefit from a donation.
Employee Sam Ulasy recommended HOPE Okanagan for this monthâs recipient because her mom volunteers there.
To-date, Creative Roots has donated over $118,000 in cash and in-kind work to organizations in Âé¶čAV.
