As GTA painting contractors, we understand that small acts can have a big impact. Ultimately, it was a series of small acts that brought us to where we are today. We didn’t start out being 7x winners of the HomeStars Best Of award, we got there slowly – one paint job at a time.
The same can be said about giving back to your community. One small donation may not feel like much, but it does make a massive impact on long-term success. With that in mind, we’d like to draw your attention to Encore’s charity involvement and the annual Alzheimer Society Toronto event, Memory Ball.
About Memory Ball
Memory Ball is an annual charitable event designed to help spread awareness and raise funds for people living with dementia in Toronto. Currently in its ninth year, Memory Ball offers community members a fun-filled night of live entertainment, dancing, cocktails, and a silent auction.
According to the Alzheimer Society website, proceeds from ticket sales and donations help “fund research that could lead to groundbreaking discoveries in brain health globally, while also supporting programs and services for people living with dementia and their care partners.”
At Encore Painting, we are proud to attend and contribute financially to Memory Ball and the fight against Alzheimer’s. Those interested in learning more about or contributing to Memory Ball should visit the Alzheimer Society website today.
The Community Impact of Donating to Charity
Did you know that giving back doesn’t just benefit the charity? It has a notably positive impact on you and your community as well. Whether it’s your time or money, donating to charity invokes several positive feelings and outcomes, including:
- A fulfilled sense of duty/responsibility
- An opportunity to meet and connect with like-minded people in your community
- A chance to generally grow and strengthen your community
- A renewed sense of self and personal values
- Your contributions will inspire those around you
- Enables charitable organizations to grow, which may lead to more jobs or volunteer opportunities later on
Additional Alzheimer Society Fundraisers
Those interested in but unable to attend the Memory Ball should not fret. The Alzheimer Society hosts a wide range of community fundraising events where you can help out, including the Unforgettable Evening Gala and The IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer’s. Keep your eyes locked on the Alzheimer Society’s events page for more ways to contribute.
Let’s Make an Impact Together
At Encore Painting, we commit to growing and strengthening our community in any way that we can. One of the ways we work toward that goal is by actively working with local charities and organizations that we believe in across the Greater Toronto Area.
