BE BETTER FOR OUR COMMUNITIES
Local communities are the foundation of Grand & Toy. We support initiatives that help communities become stronger, more vibrant and self-sufficient.

Grand & Toy Associates are leaders in our communities. We connect with hundreds of small business owners and community members each week in our Business Centres across the country. These connections give Grand & Toy the opportunity to educate, engage and partner with local community members in outreach efforts and causes that we are proud to support.

Following the devastating earthquake in Haiti in 2010, our Business Centre Associates decided to reach out to community members and their customers by asking for in-store donations to help in the relief efforts. More than $18,000 was collected for CARE Canada and the Humanitarian Coalition working on the ground to improve living conditions for thousands of displaced Haitians.

Each year, Business Centres also raise funds for the START2FINISH (formerly KidsFest) backpack program in their local communities, and each region has identified local organizations to receive donations of discontinued products. This ensures that we are minimizing the waste stream from our retail locations while contributing to those in need. Community is a foundation of our SPARK value proposition for small businesses.

Grand & Toy supported communities, both globally and locally, to build a better sense of community.
