Canada’s GESCAN West donates $60,000 to help floor victims in Calgary area

Oct. 21, 2013
$60,000 goes to The Calgary Foundation and the town of High River Disaster Relief Fund. 

The floods of 2013 devastated many of the communities where Gescan’s staff live and work, so Gescan West, a division of Sonepar Canada, recently donate $60,000 (Canadian dollars)  to be distributed to both The Calgary Foundation and the town of High River Disaster Relief Fund.

Working with these organizations ensures that the donated money will reach the communities in the greatest need during this rebuilding phase. “Gescan strives to contribute and have a positive impact in the communities it is a part of,” said Jeff Derkuch, President of Gescan West. “It’s time for us to focus our attention and energies on how we can help clean up and rebuild homes and our communities. Here at Gescan we are trying to do our small part in helping Alberta families rebuild and recover during these trying times.” Details
