Bruce Power suppliers honoured Remembrance Day Thursday with donations to Wounded Warriors Canada and to local legions.
The nuclear operator’s supplier partners made a $50,000 donation to Wounded Warriors Canada, as well as a $13,000 donation to Royal Canadian Legion branches in Grey and Bruce counties.
A release from Bruce Power says in 2019, the company and its supplier partners reached a milestone of $1 million donated to Wounded Warriors Canada – becoming the first $1 million donor in the history of the organization, which provides programs that assist with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, trauma recovery, education, job skills training, and veterans transitioning to civilian life.
Bruce Power President and CEO Mike Rencheck says in a statement, “Wounded Warriors Canada and the Royal Canadian Legion play an incredibly important role in the lives of thousands of Canadian military members, veterans, first responders and their families,” adding, “Bruce Power and our supplier partners are proud to continue supporting these organizations in honour of the achievements and sacrifices of Canadians during wartime, in peacekeeping operations around the world, and responding to events here at home.”
Wounded Warriors Executive Director Scott Maxwell says, “Bruce Power has stood beside us since our inception and, year-after-year, they continue to highlight their care, compassion and support for our injured Veterans and their family members.” He adds, “At a time when we’re seeing unprecedented demand for our mental health services, we couldn’t be more grateful for the continued support from Bruce Power and its supply chain partners.”
