Guelph, Ontario, Oct. 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Five non-profit organizations in communities across Canada have received significant support to fight homelessness and mental health challenges, thanks to a charity event and video campaign organized by a Guelph, Ontario-based company.
Skyline Group of Companies (Skyline), a real estate and clean energy asset acquisitions, management, development, and investment firm, raised $200,000 for five specially selected charities through its 18th Annual Charity Golf Classic, held in September 2022 in Milton, Ontario with more than 300 attendees.
Additionally, through the Driving Positive Change video campaign organized by Skyline, each charity was gifted a professionally produced video profiling their organization and the work they do in their community, in an effort to raise even more awareness and funds.
The selected charities are located from coast to coast in communities across Canada in which Skyline has a significant presence. Each offers programs and services that assist with housing insecurity and homelessness, food insecurity, harm reduction, and/or mental health.
