Fowler employees are thanking the communities where they live and work by focusing on food scarcity and helping out families and individuals this Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company was looking at ways of bringing their employees together on a project that would focus on the communities where they live. Given the cost of food and the tremendous need experienced by local food banks in the region, they decided to come together and prepare 275 Thanksgiving hampers, source the food from local businesses, and distribute the dinners to local organizations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dinners, which included everything you might need for a delicious Thanksgiving dinner including instructions on how to cook the turkey, were distributed to the Manna Food Bank in Bracebridge, the West Muskoka Food Bank in Glen Orchard, Harvest Share, and the Salvation Army in Parry Sound, and at the Salvation Army and Table Soup Kitchen in Huntsville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jaime Chapman, Head of Talent for Fowler, described the project as a labour of love as Fowler employees rolled up their sleeves and got to work for the community. Similar initiatives took place in North Bay, where the Fowler crew managed to raise 600 lbs of food and $250 for the food bank. The group in Mattawa attended the Mattawa Voyageur Days and collected food as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It was really a multi-faceted approach to helping the community from Simcoe all the way to North Bay,” noted Fowler Communications Coordinator Nicolle Gonneau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a good corporate citizen, Fowler does try and support community organizations but more than writing a cheque this project was special because it also focused on volunteerism in the organization bringing employees together for the common good. “The pride that people felt by being able to do that was huge. The whole initiative was around let’s impact the issues that are in our communities, so food scarcity, and show our thanks because we are thankful to work and live in these communities,” said Chapman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project also aimed at sourcing local food and supporting businesses in the community who in turn came together and supported the initiative by providing discounted items such as pies, produce, and other goods. Some of those businesses included Taylor Farm in Windermere, the Brackenrig Butcher in Port Carling, Georgian College provided a space for volunteers to put together the hampers, Foodland in Port Carling also provided discounts in support of the project as well as other community organizations and businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We\u2019re grateful to have had the opportunity to give back to our local communities,” added Chapman.<\/p>\n\n\n
