407 ETR's corporate-wide ONE BIG DAY of volunteering draws largest participation in company's history


Staff to volunteer at 28 locations across the GTA

TORONTO, July 17, 2019 /CNW/ - Today, 375 employees from 407 ETR gave back to surrounding communities through One Big Day, the company's annual day of volunteering.

Employees volunteered at a variety of community organizations and not-for-profits across Highway 407 ETR's corridor. Activities included building furniture for those less fortunate; helping out at shelters; preparing and delivering meals to those in need; mentoring youth; supporting senior's residences; and cleaning up litter in green spaces.

"For one day every year, we stop what we're doing so the 407 ETR family can connect with people and causes that are important to the communities we serve," said Andres Sacristan, President and CEO, 407 ETR. "The entire company worked together to make a positive impact in the community and I couldn't be prouder."
