TEAMSTERS CANADA FOUNDATION

$130,000 to Variety the Children’s Charity of Ontario

Charity Work

Teamsters Canada and its affiliates have been involved in raising money for worthy causes for decades. It is part of a commitment to build up a better country that goes well beyond negotiating fair contracts and fighting injustice.

For example, since 1989, Ontario Teamsters have raised close to $2 million for Variety the Children’s Charity of Ontario, a charity dedicated to helping young people with disabilities and their families in the greater Toronto area and across Ontario.

Likewise, since 1982, Québec Teamsters have also raised close to $2 million for Camp Papillon, another charity for children with disabilities. The camp also allows parents of disabled children to take a break from a busy life.
