One Exchange Charity Day

CALGARY, Alberta, November 22nd, 2022 (Press Release) One Exchange is very pleased to have had a successful Charity Day on Wednesday, November 16. Donating all revenue to two local charities, Carya and the Calgary Food Bank.
One Exchange Corp donated 50% of its brokerage revenue on November 16th, 2022 to Carya (www.caryacalgary.ca), a Calgary organization (formerly known as Calgary Family Services) which has been actively helping Calgarians since 1910. These donations are to be directed specifically to Carya’s Youth Engagement programs. One Exchange is very proud to be able to assist Carya with much needed funds to keep these important programs running.

By reaching out to vulnerable youth, Carya’s hands-on programming works to build resilience, self-esteem, and optimism among these young people. Carya’s team works to build relationships and to help develop social and emotional skills among youth. Evidence shows that this skill development translates into stronger family and community networks, the foundation of our province’s long-term prosperity and success.

Every dollar donated to Carya stays in Calgary and helps to build a stronger community for all of us.

One Exchange Corp donated the remaining 50% of its brokerage revenue on November 16th, 2022 to the Calgary Food Bank (www.calgaryfoodbank.com). With year over year increases in the price of fuel, clothing, and food, a growing number of people in Calgary and across the country are having a harder time putting healthy food on the table. According to Foodbanks Canada, “the food bank use is up 35% from 2019 and almost 50% of us are buying less food or lower quality food to make ends meet.” One Exchange Corp is very pleased to be able to donate to such an important charity.

Additionally, I want to acknowledge our customers who stepped up and made this charity effort such a success.

Thank You!

Perry Undseth President, One Exchange Corp
