And, pick up a tin of Fair Trade Maple Hot Chocolate!
Carefully blended fabulous local, organic maple sugar from Citadelle Maple Syrup Producers’ Co‑operative in Québec with fair trade and organic cocoa and sugar from our small‑scale farmer co‑operatives to make a truly Canadian hot chocolate. The result: a rich dark hot chocolate with just the right touch of maple.
We hope you’ll love this delicious blend of co‑operative partnerships as much as we do!

Run to end poverty

October 14th
The Run to End Poverty (R2EP) is a Canada-wide event with a simple goal: to raise awareness of global poverty issues and generate support for Engineers Without Borders’ (EWB) African Programs.
The annual event brings together a team of compassionate runners taking strides to end extreme poverty. With every dollar raised and kilometer logged, R2EP runners help connect the skills and ambition of our African Partners to real opportunity.
