Initiatives We Support
Read about the various local organizations and initiatives that are making our communities a better place, and see how our team works to support them to continue their noble work.
Formerly Community Memorial Hospital Foundation, Port Perry Hospital Foundation was established in 1979 with a mission to support the best in health care for our community at Port Perry Hospital (formerly Community Memorial Hospital). As we will all need medical care at some point in our lives, this is one of the most vital organizations working in support of the well being of our immediate community.
This organization is a non-profit serving Scugog residents in need. It is funded solely by donations and remains a vital part of the community. It operates throughout the year and fulfills an ever-increasing need in the community, staffed entirely by volunteers.
Alzheimer Society of Canada has a mission to promote the search for causes, treatments and a cure for this debilitating disease. It has affected both Keith & Lisa’s families and the families of several of our clients. It has become our latest philanthropic cause and one very close to our hearts.
Led by the charismatic and tireless Executive Director Margaret Ayers, this important organization tends to the emotional needs of our area’s “Littles.” Their noble mission is to “enable life-changing mentoring relationships to ignite the power and potential of young people.” What could be more important to ensuring the future for all, than to look after our younger generations?
Their Opportunity is a grassroots charity in Durham that exists to provide low-income families with the means to enroll children in organized sports and recreation. Additionally, within 3 months of receiving funding, each child is mandated to “pay-it-forward” through their Giveback Program. Their program inspires hope while teaching essential life skills of teamwork and compassion. A portion of every sale completed with Willows Realty Group is donated to this initiative.
Hearth Place Cancer Support Centre provides community support for people diagnosed with cancer and their families through individual and group support, information, a resource centre, wellness programs and an ongoing lecture and discussion series. Hearth Place is a support centre where cancer patients and their families can come and share their experiences, find resources and discover new ways to care for themselves and each other. Willows Realty Group, WEE/MAX and RE/MAX Jazz collectively donated $150,000 to build a brand new paediatric department for Hearth Place!
With every purchase and sale of a home with our team, we make a direct donation. The funds raised go toward primary prevention research, which aims to stop breast cancer before it starts. Primary prevention research carries some of the greatest potentials for exciting new discoveries and widespread impact.
Willows Realty Group contributes a portion of every purchase and sale to Children’s Miracle Network member hospitals. Each donation helps fund paediatric medical equipment and treatments, as well as other healthcare services.
An innovative, 100% Canadian-owned clothier and manufacturer in Whitby, Ontario, Koolway Sports offers fashionable, comfortable, medically-adaptable and weather-appropriate outerwear that allows customers and caregivers to experience more outside! Koolway Sports have applied their experience in technology and design to create unique, thoughtful products that are fashionable, functional, easy to put on, and eliminate weather as a barrier to life’s experiences. Funding assistance is not always available to families for these items, so Willows Realty Group has donated custom coats to help.
Philanthropy is how communities thrive. We consider it our honour, privilege, and responsibility to pay it forward, and help to uplift the neighbourhoods and residents we value so much.
Willows Group is not only proud and grateful to support these wonderful charities, but is humbled by the good work they do.
