RONA Foundation donates over $17,000 to Niagara organizations

The RONA Foundation’s Home Sweet Home campaign has delivered a major boost to Niagara charities supporting families and vulnerable community members. 

This year’s initiative raised more than $530,000 nationwide, with over $17,500 directed to four Niagara organizations. Local beneficiaries include GBF Community Services in Grimsby, Gillian’s Place, Heartland Forest Nature Experience, and the Niagara Children’s Centre. 

Funds were collected from September 1 to October 12 across RONA stores, with customers donating in-store and online. 

RONA officials say the campaign supports safe, accessible housing and strengthens communities amid growing affordability pressures.
