OUR CAUSES

When you choose to work with us, you are helping to contribute to these and many other great causes!

THE EAST SIDE FOOD DRIVE

We created The East Side Food Drive in response to COVID-19 and in support of the Daily Bread Food Bank. When we became aware of the drastic increase in food bank visits as a result of the pandemic, we knew we had to do something to help!

We started with a somewhat impromptu event that we organized back in December 2020 (The Holiday Season Edition) and then after such an incredible response, we facilitated our second food drive in April 2021 (The Easter Edition). Again, receiving such a great response from all of our generous east end neighbours, we quickly decided to make this a regular thing!

Our goal is to make it as easy as possible for you to contribute to the Daily Bread Food Bank. We’re not a registered charity. We’re just a couple of guys trying to help out however we can! For more info and details on our next food drive, check out EastSideFoodDrive.com.

THE CHILDREN’S MIRACLE NETWORK

A portion of every one of our transactions is donated directly to this important organization as part of the Miracle Home Program.

RE/MAX is the exclusive real estate sponsor of the Children’s Miracle Network; an international non-profit organization, which consists of 170 children’s hospitals providing state-of-the-art, life-saving care 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

RE/MAX Hallmark is proud to be one of the top 3 contributors to the Children’s Miracle Network of all RE/MAX organizations worldwide. Donations from us realtors and staff, directly benefit the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, also known as SickKids.

The funds raised by RE/MAX help to support specialized treatment, purchase medical equipment and assist families who need help in times of medical emergencies. In addition to innovate research that helps identify new ways of diagnosing and treating illnesses.

ROUTES OF CHANGE

A donation is made to Routes of Change with each of our property transactions.

Routes of Change is a registered non-profit society based in Tofino, BC, Canada. With plans to be active throughout the planet.

The mission of Routes of Change is to use adventure and entertainment to support the unsung leaders of our planet. As they work to create a healthy future for all beings.

Markus Pukonen is traveling in one consecutive journey around the world by as many motor less means as possible. Including rowing, swimming, kayaking, stand up paddleboarding, sailing, running, biking, skiing, skateboarding, velomobiling, walking backwards, and pogo sticking. Each leg of the route will be in partnership with a local social or environmental organization in order to build the movement towards a wiser earth.

The journey is expected to take about five years with weather and political situations largely influencing the route and timing. Markus is not planning on breaking any records, but he will likely create new ones.

It is time to change, Routes of Change.
