The Canadian Gypsum Company (CGC) raised over $31,000 for the Trellis Society during the Cowboy Corral Stampede fundraiser.
The event took place on Wednesday (July 9) in Calgary and featured a silent auction along with industry representatives, government officials, local businesses, and non-profit organizations.
A total of $31,595 was raised at the event, with the donation made in partnership with The Home Depot Foundation.
"The Trellis Society has touched the lives of countless homeless youth in Alberta," said Amy Bilodeau, senior manager of community investment at The Home Depot Foundation.
The Trellis Society provides parent and caregiver support along with housing and family programs. The society operated in Strathmore and throughout Alberta.
"These donations since 2023 have enabled us to reach more individuals and families with the care and programming they need," said Courtenay Hick, co-chief operating officer at Trellis.
This is the third consecutive year CGC has supported the organization, with the company donating over $81,000 throughout that time.
