In addition to the many wonderful stores we hear about individuals stepping up to help our front line workers, our seniors and homeless, so too are our local commerce and businesses.

Restaurants in particular are donating and providing critical food supplies to many who are struggling in these challenging days.  There are others however, who are more silent on the sideline and have had little to no recognition for their acts of kindness and generosity. 

Here we want to recognize these businesses with a simple “Thank-you” for all you do….you are making a difference.

Healthy Planet has been donating to various hospitals in the York Region and profits from the sales of their PPE are also going back into the community.  In addition, skids of food are being donated to women’s shelters that impact the Aurora and York region.

 

Hospitals such as Southlake, MacKenzie Health, Baycrest to name a few are all receiving PPE from Healthy Planet.  Skids of food continue to be donated to Sandgate Shelter to support vulnerable women during a time when they are often trapped in abusive environments.  Furthermore, the profits from the sale of PPE are being donated back to the community based on charities chosen by staff.

Healthy Planet knows all too well the benefits of a healthy community and are doing their part to support the vulnerable and various charities in Aurora and beyond during this pandemic.

Thank you to Healthy Planet
