In celebration of 125 Years of Hettich, the company is donating 125,000 Euro to charities and social programs around the world where employees and colleagues have committed to contribute their time and efforts to support worthwhile causes.
Hettich is honouring its employee’s social commitment by supporting those important and worthy initiatives. As part of this recognition, Hettich recently donated 1,250.00 Euro to the MS Society of Canada in specific recognition of Renee Trelle’s efforts.
Renée Trelle, who has been with Hettich Canada L.P. for 14 years, has a family member who suffers from MS and she sees her efforts as a chance to help. Multiple sclerosis is a disease of the central nervous system, which affects the ability of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord to communicate with each other effectively. Renee and her family have taken part in the MS Walk for six years now. It is also important for her to teach her daughters to help others in need and that one person’s commitment can and does make a difference. Hettich Canada was pleased to present a cheque in honour of Renee’s commitment and efforts, at its head office in Concord, Ont. on April 18. On behalf of everyone at Hettich in Canada and around the globe the company congratulates Renée’s efforts and made a donation to the MS Society of Canada.
The MS Walk Renée participates in is a five-kilometer walk organized by the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada, which takes place every year across Canada. People can take part individually or with their family and friends.
The donation will support multiple sclerosis research and help people with MS improve the quality of life through social programs, research and hopefully, one day, a cure. Funds raised also support innovative programs and facilities in various parts of the country to help people affected by the illness.
