Supporting Our Local Communities
To show our appreciation for our community as well as support those in need, the Guest Team is honoured to organize a variety of charitable projects each year. An important part of our culture is contributing our time and resources to support as many people as possible in the community that supports our operations. We are also aware that many individuals and organizations have a hard time finding meaningful and trustworthy charity campaigns to get involved in and support with their donations. We are always looking to establish relationships with new partners and donors so that we can continue to develop meaningful social campaigns for the community.

Purpose Fuels Passion – Goal Setting Masterclass March 2024
In March 2024, our team successfully conducted the “Purpose Fuels Passion – Goal Setting Masterclass” to raise funds for The Eva Rothwell Centre. Thanks to your incredible support, we raised thousands of dollars! This masterclass focused on setting goals in five key areas: family, personal, financial, mindset, and business/career. Participants left with clear, actionable plans to achieve their dreams. We were deeply grateful to everyone who joined us and contributed to this cause. Your presence and support made this event truly special, helping both personal growth and our community.
Movember 2023
Working in the construction industry with many men we consider brothers and family, it hits us hard when we see health issues being ignored. Men often overlook their health issues, leading to considerable suffering. In 2023, our Guest team successfully ran a Movember campaign to raise awareness about men’s health and support those facing health challenges. Thanks to everyone’s generous contributions, we raised thousands of dollars. There was no better feeling than seeing the impact of our collective effort.
Back-to-school Donation Drive – August 2023
In 2023, our team successfully delivered thousands of school supplies to the Eva Rothwell Resource Centre, thanks to everyone’s generous contributions.There was no better feeling than seeing the smiles
School Supplies Donation Drive in Ecuador – May 2023
Our Guest team was fortunate to have the priceless opportunity to create a community project for underprivileged families in Ecuador. We provided school supplies to kids to help them excel in their studies. Ben is our controller, our longest-standing employee who now lives and works in Ecuador teaching English to children in rural communities. Ben shared, “First, for a bit of context, the minimum wage or the basic salary here in Ecuador is about $450 USD a month. Of course, many jobs pay more than that, but most of the kids we tutored and helped came from families in difficult situations. Some of the families were without work at all, and they didn’t have access to the programs or social services that we would have in Canada. So for them, any help that they could get was very much appreciated. In terms of school supplies, we purchased kits that included everything the kids needed for about $55 CAD. The kids here also use uniforms, which were costly at about $100 per child, and they couldn’t attend school without them. This is an idea of everything they needed (yes, the kids needed to provide garbage bags and toilet paper).” We were extremely grateful for all your support, which allowed our team to enhance communities not only in Ontario but also in Ecuador. We were thrilled that we could make a difference in these kids’ lives this year.
Coat Drive 2022
Coat Drive was our community project to donate winter clothes, such as coats, sweaters, and jackets, to support people in need in the city during the cold-weather season. We collected the coats and winter clothing items and delivered them to the Eva Rothwell Centre and Hamilton Good Shepherd.
As a result, we received and distributed 524 winter coats and over 400 winter clothing items donated by individuals and organizations to those in need in the community.
Back To School Drive 2022
In August 2022, our team was extremely grateful to all the sponsors for generously providing a significant amount of school supplies. From dropping them off at our office to supporting us through our Amazon wishlist, we were overwhelmingly happy to see how everyone united to give back to our community.
We successfully delivered all the donations to the Eva Rothwell Resource Centre. Seeing the smiles on the children’s faces, we knew we had helped them excel in the upcoming school year and given wings to their dreams.
Earth Day 2022
At Guest, we believe it’s always crucial and necessary to look for solutions to keep our planet the safest place for the next generation to live, grow and explore.
As Earth Day happens in April, our team desired to contribute our time and energy to make our community cleaner and safer for everyone. On Saturday, April 9th, 2022, we organized an event to clean up the area behind Hutch’s on the Beach restaurant. We also provided free T-shirts, food and drinks to all participants.
With the support of over 70 volunteers, we collected approximately 20 bags of garbage. Our team couldn’t be more grateful and humbled to have everyone’s contribution to making a change for our community.
We especially want to send special thanks to all the event’s sponsors. Without your donations, it would be more difficult for our team to accomplish this goal. Thank you, Acadian Driveaway, Team Shane, Duca Financial Services Credit Union, Building Dream Contracting, McCarter Unlimited, Clearleaf, Modern Design Studio, Fairway Building Supply, M Berman Homes, Alair Homes Oakville.
We’re thrilled to see that Hamilton Beach is now cleaner and safer for everyone to enjoy hanging out during summer. Our team looks forward to bringing more solutions to keep our environment greener.
Holiday Food Drive
The Holiday Food Drive was our charity project encouraging everyone in Hamilton and surrounding areas to donate food and necessities to support people in need at the
Welcome Inn Community.
“Welcome Inn’s food bank is a place for individuals and families to access food and personal hygiene items.” With a significant amount of everyone’s contribution and support, we successfully provided over 1250 food and personal care items to individuals and families in need at the Welcome Inn Community.
Kids Summer Fun Pack
Kids Summer Fun Pack was a community project built to provide kids with school and recreation supply packages. Our goal was to share some fun summer toys and supplies
with kids and families in the community so that all could have an amazing summer. The packages contain a variety of items such as markers, crayons, bubbles, water balloons, balloons, chalk, sand kit, construction paper, colouring books, etc.
In June and July 2021, we collected donations and partnered with many local businesses to implement the project. The Guest Team successfully delivered more than 1000 summer toys and
school supplies to the City Kidz Hamilton. We were able to help kids in our community enjoy their summer as much as possible.
Winter Charity Coat Drive
The purpose of this program is to help keep everyone in our community safe and warm and help prevent the effects of winter-related illnesses. We are happy to partner with Webster Benefit Consultants and Carben Automotive to implement the Winter Charity Coat Drive.
The Winter Charity Coat Drive encourages everyone in the City of Hamilton and surrounding areas to contribute winter coats to support families in need during the winter season.
We collect the winter coats and deliver them to Wesley Urban Ministries to support people experiencing poverty, homelessness and other challenges in the community. Especially with the impact of the COVID-19, we realize that some in the community may not have the ability to purchase cold-weather necessities like a winter coat for their loved ones and themselves.
Every year, Wesley creates Christmas gift packages to support many families in need. It has been our pleasure to participate and be a part of this great campaign to fill those packages.
As a result, we received and distributed 515 winter coats donated from individuals and organizations to those in need in the community.
Food Drive
We are honoured to associate with the YWCA Hamilton organization to implement our Food Drive campaign. The campaign encourages Hamiltonians and people living in surrounding areas to contribute food and family supplies to support women at the Transitional Living Program and Phoenix Place of YWCA Hamilton during the challenging COVID-19 pandemic.
These food and family supplies allow women who call YWCA Hamilton home to overcome challenging situations such as poverty, homelessness, and violence while isolating themselves at those locations.
The food supplies are distributed to YWCA Hamilton’s Transitional Living Program providing safe, affordable and temporary housing for women at risk and struggling with the impact of poverty, homelessness, and violence. They are also given to Phoenix Place as a safe haven for women and their children escaping domestic violence.
The campaign receives $4,500 of total food and cash donated.
Shirt Off Your Back Face Mask Challenge
The Shirt Off Your Back Face Mask Challenge encourages Canadians to create personal-use face masks from an article of clothing to help prevent the spread of the COVID-19 and help ensure medical N95 respirator masks continue to be prioritized for frontline medical workers.
We are honoured to partner with King & Bay to implement the Shirt Off Your Back Face Mask Challenge. We have created face masks that will be delivered to St. Joseph’s Healthcare and Michael Garron Hospital in East Toronto and local community organizations in need of homemade masks.
The masks are distributed to all approved visitors who enter Michael Garron Hospital and given to all of their discharged patients as they reintegrate into the community, along with the broader community, intending to help to prevent disease transmission.
