BOUCHERVILLE, QC, July 11, 2017 /CNW/ - Using its vast network of
Lowe's, RONA, Réno-Dépôt, Marcil, Dick's Lumber and Ace stores
across the country, Lowe's Canada
announces the launch of a national campaign, in partnership with
the Canadian Red Cross, to aid victims of the wildfires currently
raging in British Columbia.
Beginning today, customers of the various Lowe's Canada banners will be invited, at the moment
of their purchase, to make a donation of their choice to the
British Columbia Fires fund established by the Red
Cross.
Funds raised will be donated to the Canadian Red Cross, which
will use them to provide immediate relief such as camp beds and
blankets, facilitate the reunification of families, and provide
financial assistance to disaster victims to allow them to purchase
food and clothing and look after their personal needs.
