We wholeheartedly believe in developing partnerships with local charitable organizations, rallying behind their causes to amplify awareness and rally support. Many of these organizations are not well known and require financial aid to continue their operations. They also need increased awareness to highlight their worthy pursuits.

We understand that knowledge is power, and through our efforts to raise awareness, we aim to cast a wider net of support, extending our reach to touch more lives. Our team members and community nominations deeply influence our selection process for partnering organizations. This ensures that our efforts truly resonate with the heartbeats of our neighborhoods.

Our community investment initiative commenced in 2021. This began with the introduction of ‘Charity Day,’ a monthly event. Every last Thursday, we allocate a portion of our sales to support a local charity. Fueled by internal passion and external interest, our commitment expanded significantly. In 2024, we established the Ãå±±½ûµØ Community Funds.

Through this funding, our goal is to foster equitable support for all participating charities. We strive to ensure that every worthy cause receives the attention and resources it deserves. Our vision extends beyond the horizon, with aspirations to broaden our community investments in the years to come, touching more families, uplifting more spirits, and igniting more hope.

Just as Ãå±±½ûµØ is your destination for home improvement, we aim for our charitable efforts to integrate into your community journey. Together, let’s create a community as beautiful as our homes, weaving compassion, support, and unity.

The competition in business can be fierce, and it can be challenging for a business to differentiate itself from its competitors. A business that takes Social Responsibility seriously can gain consumers as well as develop a forum to sell and earn their customers’ attention and respect.Ìý

Social Responsibility can raise awareness about your business as a positive power in society and in your community. The projects you and your team choose to support and participate in work in tandem. They not only raise awareness, funds and/or physical labour in certain cases for the charity, they also raise your brand exposure. The more exposure to the public your brand can receive, the more likely it is that you will be recognized easier in the competitive crowd.Ìý

While it is important to be recognizable as a philanthropic company to your customer, it is equally important to be recognized that way to the people who work with you. Retaining a good, like-minded team of people who will foster a productive and positive work environment, I believe is in direct correlation to a strong CSR policy.Ìý

Today, a business that is committed to improving the world, one charitable activity at a time, will attract more talent. Customer satisfaction and employee retention are the keys to any successful business.Ìý

At Ãå±±½ûµØ, we believe firmly in our CSR policy. We believe that having a CSR policy that reflects our core values as a corporation and blends the values of the people that work with us to those of our clients, forms our foundation. We aim to be a business that practices excellent Corporate Social Responsibility to improve our community, our economy, and ourselves.Ìý

Our core mission is to help Canadians succeed and grow, not only by helping them to build their own businesses and build up their own local economies, but also by giving back to the communities that nurture our growth and sustain us.

When we, as a leadership team, discussed our Corporate Social Responsibility policy, it was of the utmost importance to maintain the integrity of our core mission and values. This mission and these values were ideated and set by the people that work within Mosaic. It is a blend of all of us united, working towards a common goal with integrity, and a willingness to learn and evolve. We are all linked together within our communities and strive for them to be the best they can be.Ìý

With all of this in mind, we wrote our policy to reflect the true value of what we as an organization believe in. We choose charitable organizations within the community that have core values that align with our own. We do this by making charitable giving a top priority each month.Ìý

We choose the last Thursday of each month to give 5% of sales from all our brands to organizations that are chosen by our team members and or suggested by our community.Ìý

Charitable giving may seem slightly egotistical, and while it does improve our brand recognition by showing we have a socially conscious image, for us at Ãå±±½ûµØ, it goes far beyond that.Ìý

The Knight family has always been philanthropic and when starting Ãå±±½ûµØ, we knew having a solid Corporate Socially Responsible Policy was a priority. While initiating and implementing the policy, involving our entire team was very important.Ìý

This is the core of what our team developed for our CSR:

Ãå±±½ûµØ is dedicated to Expecting More and Building Dreams by partnering with charitable organizations that have a solid commitment to: 

1. Education
2. Inclusion
3. Physical & Mental Health

Being able to support the community that supports us requires a strategy that is sustainable and ongoing. Even through tough times, like Covid-19, when we couldn’t give as much financially, we found creative ways to give such as volunteering our time, our strength, and our mentorship. We are all living in the same community just trying to live our best lives.

 Part of being a good business is respecting the community you serve.

 Being a great business is doing your best to help others in the community you serve.Ìý
