RONA campaign in support of Red Cross runs Feb 1-28
RONA is gearing up for a cross-country campaign to raise much-needed funds for local Canadian Red Cross disaster response activities in our community. The campaign will run in RONA stores across the country from February 1 to 28, with a goal of $125,000.
Supporting the Canadian Red Cross is easy. At the RONA checkout, the cashier will give customers the opportunity to make a modest donation to support the work of Canadian Red Cross in their community. Funds raised in the community will be put to work in the community.
Since 2005, RONA has supported the Canadian Red Cross through corporate gifts, the annual February in-store campaign and through direct-impact donations of clean-up kits. Rona has donated more than $800,000 and helped over 1,480 Canadian families get back in their homes after an emergency be it a fire, flood or other event. Rona provides clean-up kits to disaster victims, free of charge, through local Canadian Red Cross disaster response teams.
For more information, contact your local Red Cross office.
