Bruce Power announced recently its Retooling and Economic Recovery Council (RERC) has joined Canada United, a national movement to support local businesses in communities across the country.
The initiative culminates with a shop-local celebration from Aug. 28-30.
Canadians are also encouraged to watch the Canada United videos online at GoCanadaUnited.ca, like posts from @GoCanadaUnited on social media and use #CanadaUnited to demonstrate their support.
For each of these actions until Aug. 31st, RBC will contribute five cents to the new Canada United Small Business Relief Fund. The fund will provide small businesses with grants of up to $5,000 to cover expenses related to personal protective equipment (PPE) renovations to accommodate re-opening guidelines and developing or improving e-commerce capabilities.
