Community Involvement

Bras for a Cause, June of 2007
June was a great time for the staff, owner-operators, customers, friends and family of ICI.  Over $5,000 was generated from an idea the staff had to raise money for Breast Cancer awareness.  Staff, Owner-Operators, customers, friends, and family were all asked to donate a bra and with it, a donation of money.  The bras would be strung around our parking lot on the day of the event with an outside BBQ to raise more money.  It was well attended and the donations were great.

Spaghetti Benefit Dinner, February of 2008
The Staff and Owner-operators, friends and family got together to help a friend in need.  Everyone pitched in to help.  Items were donated by customers, vendors and friends and family.  A spaghetti supper followed by an auction of these items helped this family through a very tough time.

Hang Cancer Out To Dry, September of 2013

Bras for a Cause in 2007 was such a success we decided to do it again, this time we included the men too! Staff, owner-operators, customers, friends and family of ICI were asked to decorate a bra or underwear and send them in with a monetary donation which was all sent to The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation Ontario or Prostate Cancer Canada. On the day of our event, we held a poker run, raffle and also an afternoon barbeque. The donated bras and underwear were hung along the ICI driveway on a gigantic clothesline and later laundered and donated to women’s and men’s shelters.   The event was quite successful and we were able to raise over $5,000 for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation Ontario and over $3,500 for Prostate Cancer Canada.  

Spaghetti Benefit Dinner, January of 2015

Staff, owner-operators, customers, vendors, friends and family of ICI came together again to help a young family through a difficult time.  This was one of our own Owner-Operators, who fell sick and his family.  The support we received from customers, vendors, friends and family of ICI was tremendous. Donations for food, gas and $$$ were collected for the family and donated items were used for a live auction.  Tickets to the event sold out and we were thankful for the generosity of our customers, vendors, co-workers, friends and family which made the fundraiser a true success.
