Strengthening Our Communities

Insideout is proud to publish our charitable end review and thank those that made it possible.

Christopher Mele reports ”… as we continue to grow as a company we also have a responsiblity to our communities and we are proud of participating and working with each of the charitable organizations to promote positive change.”  

At Insideout we will continue to strengthen communities, work with our charitable organizations.

We look forward to the 2010 outdoor furniture season and again working with the community and organizations that work towards helping others.

The Princess Margaret Hospital Foundation 

 Princess Margaret is one of the top 5 cancer research centers in the world. Insideout Home & Patio was a proud sponsor of The 2009 Weekend to End Breast Cancer.  The funds assist with breakthrough research, clinical enhancements and continued support for the WEBC Survivor-ship program.

Insideout is also pleased that members of the Woodbridge service staff participated in the event. There is still much to do at Insideout and will continue to support these efforts and be part of the End to Breast Cancer.

William Osler Health Centre Foundation “Somewhere In Time Gala”  In support of Brampton Civic Hospital

Insideout Home and Patio is proud to be a part of the first anniversary of the life and work of Brampton Civic Hospital that took place on November 2009.  We donated patio furniture for the Silent Auction which raised over $22,000 alone.  We look forward to participating in another successful event next year.

Spa Day’s Annual Fundraiser

In October 2009 Spa Day hosted the 3rd annual Fundraiser in Vaughan to raise funds to be donated to the Alzheimer Society of Toronto.  Spa Day has had two successful years of raising over $3000 for several different charities which Insideout Home and Patio is proud to have contributed.

Family and Friends for a Cure

Over the past 4 years, Family and Friends for a Cure has raised over $129,000 with all proceeds directed to fund multiple sclerosis research.  Insideout Home and Patio is pleased to contribute to the 2009 Family and Friends Campaign.  The 2008 goal was to raise $40,000, however, the Friends and Family campaign raised an incredible $51,000 bringing us closer and closer to finding a cure.

York Central Hospital Silent Auction

Insideout was proud to be apart of the November 2009 York Central Hospital Crystal Ball Silent Auction. Our support helped raised money to ensure we all continue to receive the best medical care in the world. Our furniture contribution helped to raise funds and we look forward to being apart of the 2010 Crystal Ball event.

Chiara Emily De Matteis Annual Golf Tournament: Hospital for Sick Children

September 2009 marked the 4th annual golf tournament in Chiara’s memory in support of the Hospital for Sick Children. With the participation of friends and the community a total of $27,800 was raised, a truly remarkable achievment and many will benefit from the donation.

There is no question life can change quickly, our children are precious let us not take life for granted and work together to achieve the best for our children. Sick Childrens motto is “Imagine every child health.” Insideout will continue to work together and help the many children and their families that need assistance.
