Bruce Power has donated $25,000 to Habitat for Humanity Grey Bruce on Friday in mark of National Employee Appreciation Day.
Bruce Power said their employees contribute to their communities in countless ways, including volunteering for habitat for Humanity.
In 2022, Habitat for Humanity Grey Bruce built seven single-dwelling homes for families on Saugeen First Nation. The local chapter of the non-profit has built more than 60 houses across Grey/Bruce since it was founded in 1987.
“The people who work at Bruce Power are proud members of the communities in which they live, and we’re pleased to honour that with our partnership with Habitat for Humanity Grey Bruce,” said Mike Rencheck, Bruce Power’s President and CEO. “We’re supporting an organization that is making a difference for families right here at home, while also supplying clean, reliable energy to the people of Ontario and cancer-fighting medical isotopes around the world.”
“The continued support of Bruce Power and its employees has been integral in providing affordable and energy-efficient homes for families in need,” said Greg Fryer, Executive Director of Habitat for Humanity Grey Bruce. “While Bruce Power provides much-needed funding through our partnership, employees also volunteer their time to help make our builds successful.”
