 OCCA Community
|
|
OCCA is committed to giving back to the community
in which we live and work. Investing in organizations that provide invaluable services to our community is a core
value we hold corporately and among our employees. Each year OCCA collects from its employees to donate clothing
and non-perishable food items to a local food bank and shelter. This year we have donated funds to The Scott Mission in order
to feed 140 people! We are also delighted to sponsor the Salvation
Army Food Bank in Brampton, Ontario. OCCA
will provide the extra hands packaging food boxes to give to needy families this Thanksgiving and Christmas
season. Be sure to check out our pictures on Facebook! Every year during the Holiday season, OCCA selects from our pool of members
a needy family to donate food, clothing and toys to so that they may have a wonderful Christmas together. It has brought
our team more joy than we could hope for and are very excited about the upcoming Holiday season so that we can help another
family in need of a helping hand.

We don't stop there, in
2010, OCCA donated funds beyond our Canadian boarders by purchasing a school in Haiti through the Michael “Pinball”
Clemons Foundation, in partnership with Free The Children’s Adopt a Village development program, in response to the
devastating earthquake which occurred on January 12th, 2010. Free The Children supports holistic community development for
marginalized children and their families through its innovative Adopt a Village program. This invaluable program provides
education to individuals and communities thus contributing to the creation of a sustainable existence by providing clean water,
health, sanitation, and alternative income programming. Together, we have helped free children from poverty and exploitation
and have empowered them to bring about positive social change to improve the lives of their peers.
