EllisDon Participates in the 2024 ParaTough Cup
EllisDon is proud to participate in the ParaTough Cup,the Paralympic Foundation of Canada's premier fundraising event.
Held in both Calgary and Toronto in March 2024, the event was an unforgettable experience for our 15 participants from the Calgary office and three different EllisDon departments: Infrastructure Services & Technology (IST), Digital & Data Engineering, and Capital. Our teams competed fiercely in various Para sports, including Wheelchair basketball, Sitting volleyball, and Para ice hockey, and we couldn't be prouder of their dedication and effort.
They gave it their all and we couldn’t be prouder of their efforts. However, it was the Paralympians who truly shined. The Paralympians’ passion, dedication and exceptional talent were incredibly inspiring and reminded us that greatness is possible with determination and hard work.
EllisDon remains committed to supporting the Foundation with an annual fundraising goal of $25,000. We are thrilled to have contributed $10,000 from our participationin the ParaTough Cup, and we're excited to see the funds raised go towards the Foundation's goal of promoting sports and creating opportunities for Canadians with disabilities.
This partnership is near and dear to our team and we look forward to continuing our partnership with the Canadian Paralympic Committee. and supporting our Paralympians as they compete in the Paralympic Games of Paris 2024.
