As the holiday season approached, our Convergence Cares initiative once again united our offices in a shared mission to support local charities and make a positive impact in our communities. This year, our efforts were more impactful than ever, and we are excited to share the highlights of our charitable activities.
Ottawa – Cornerstone Housing for Women
In Ottawa, we raised and donated $750 to Cornerstone Housing for Women and contributed multiple items from their holiday wish list. Cornerstone Housing for Women is a local non-profit that provides shelter and women-only programs to the Ottawa community. As the largest women-only shelter in Ottawa, they have over 130 staff and more than 200 volunteers supporting the community.

Additionally, our team participated in the Ottawa Food Bank’s Fill the Foyer event, helping to support those in need during the holiday season. Visit the Ottawa Food Bank’s website for more information here: https://www.ottawafoodbank.ca/

Our team in Lansing had the opportunity to volunteer at the Greater Lansing Food Bank to sort food. The team also raised $1,200 to support their efforts in fighting hunger in the community.
The Greater Lansing Food Bank ensures that families and neighbors in need across their seven-county service area have access to nutritious food to support their health and well-being. You can learn more about Greater Lansing Food Bank here: https://greaterlansingfoodbank.org/
