Veritas Holiday Food Drive
Weston Area Emergency Support
Rising food prices, combined with the surging cost of rent, continue to add to the difficulties of those living on fixed and low incomes in Toronto.
Recent media reports indicate GTA food banks are facing the highest demand in their history. Visits to food banks in the GTA have increased by over 1 million since last year.
100% of the financial donations raised in our Veritas Food Drive will go to the purchase of groceries, which will be delivered by Veritas employees, friends and family to the Weston Area Emergency Support (WAES) located at 1 King St. in the Weston Community of Toronto (bounded by Wilson Ave., Royal York, Black Creek and Eglinton Ave.).
Since 1986, WAES has provided food support and security to the most vulnerable in the Weston community. They offer support without judgment, and their volunteers welcome clients from all backgrounds and walks of life.
Thank you for your support!
To date, the Veritas Food Drives have raised over $21,000 for local food banks!

History of the Buddies Open
In 1994, the North West Devils were awarded $500 for winning the Bill Bolton Consolation Men's Hockey Championship. Excited but not knowing what to do with the bounty, the team decided to use the funds for a golf tournament and BBQ. The event was so successful that it became a charitable ritual.
Nearly all the original Devils continue to participate in the tourney (though none have ever won), but much has changed. Most notably, the bachelors have become fathers, making their wives and children part of the Buddies.
Veritas employees and their families, as well as many of our clients and associates, have also joined.
Over the years, we've raised almost $140,000.
