Employees from Handy Bros Home Comfort have made a significant donation that will help support children in need in Chatham-Kent.
Handy Bros employees recently presented the Children’s Treatment Centre Foundation with a donation of $20,500 for the treatment centre’s Butterfly Building Campaign. Over the past year, the employees accumulated money for the donation through payroll deductions.
“Our staff felt that getting involved with the CTC and the new build was good for our community,” said Mitch White from Handy Bros. “We are continually community focused and felt this was an important project to support.”
The donation will support the construction of a new 55,000-square-foot facility for the treatment centre, which will be located on McNaughton Avenue West in Chatham.
The new Children’s Treatment Centre building will provide additional space to reduce wait times for rehabilitation services such as speech therapy, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and autism services. The centre currently provides services to one in five children and youth in Chatham-Kent.
