LINAMAR IN THE COMMUNITY     Linamar is a proud major sponsor at several events throughout the year in the community, Festival of Trees, Sparkles in the Park, Festival Italiano, Skills Canada Competition, Rotary Club Canada Day and Ribfest to name but a few.   The company is also a strong supporter of the United Way, the Lung Association, the Kidney Foundation, the Arthritis Society, the Guelph Hospital Foundation, the Cancer Society and many more local charities and organizations.   Our employees and their families have always been important to us and we are proud to sponsor many local sports teams including Guelph Youth Soccer, Youth Baseball, Hockey and Swimming.   Our community is one of the most important stakeholders in our company and our employees are our most important resource.  It is important for us to support our people by supporting the local events and charities that enrich our lives.   We feel it is vital for our company and our employees to be active citizens and be involved in society.  Being active in your neighborhood creates a sense of community that not only nourishes the personal lives of our employees but also shapes and creates a sense of involvement within the company - it lends a hand in helping our employees connect with one another.  Our employees help us better understand what is important to them which in turn helps us make a difference as a company.   Contact Andrea Bowman if you have an idea of how Linamar can help in your community.      Andrea Bowman T:  519.836.7550 ext. 2007 E:  andrea.bowman@linamar.com Note:  It is company policy to receive all requests in writing.  Please include information on your organization, what you require funds for and specific amounts if applicable.   Each request is reviewed on an individual basis.
