– A Way To Give Back –
Tank For Lunch Program
The tanks for lunch program is a way for us to give back to our community in our own way. We have partnered with the Nanaimo Ladysmith School Foundation to create a donation program.
The Nanaimo Ladysmith School Foundation is a paid/volunteer organization that took child hunger under their belt. They decided to make a difference in our community by creating a food program for children in need. 1/3 children in Canada live in poverty, meaning they go to school hungry. The school foundation provides lunches and meals for children in all Schools in Nanaimo and Ladysmith.
Knowing these facts, we knew we had to help out. That’s where the idea of Tanks for lunch was created. So we decided that from every water heater install, we would donate a portion directly to the foundation.
To Date we have Donated: $30,830
