GIVING BACK: Combatting Food Insecurity

At GB, we are committed to sustainability and improving our environmental footprint. This year our focus was on combatting food insecurity. Over the summer, we teamed up with MicroHabitatGo to https://ca.linkedin.com/company/microhabitat?trk=organization-update_share-update_update-text to install gardens on our rooftops of two of our national offices. We were able to grow over 30 different types of vegetables and yielded over 350 lbs of fresh food, which we donated to The Stop Community Food CentreGo to https://ca.linkedin.com/company/the-stop-community-food-centre?trk=organization-update_share-update_update-text, an incredible organization which provides emergency food access to the local community. Our hope is to cultivate change and encourage other organizations to optimize their urban space and help build healthy communities.
