Act #86 of Our 100 Acts of Kindness – Supporting the Dave Reid Bonspiel 🥌🏆

On March 11th, we were proud to support the High Park Club and their Senior Men’s Bonspiel, now named the Dave Reid Bonspiel in honour of a longtime member whose contributions left a lasting impact on the club and its community.

Events like this are a wonderful way to bring people together — celebrating sport, friendship, and the legacy of those who helped build such strong community traditions.

Our own Cindy Ciampa was on hand to take in part of the day, and we were especially proud to once again present the Cardinal Cup to the winning team. 🏆

We’re grateful to continue supporting organizations like the High Park Club that foster connection, honour legacy, and bring communities together year after year.

Act #83 of Our 100 Acts of Kindness – Supporting the Knights of Columbus Super Bowl Fundraiser 🏈🎟️

We were proud to once again support the Knights of Columbus - Sheptytsky Council #5079 and their annual Super Bowl Party & Fundraiser, which took place on February 8th.

As longtime supporters of this incredible council, we were happy to donate a pair of Toronto Raptors tickets to help raise additional funds for the evening’s charitable initiatives.

This fundraiser supports a number of meaningful causes, including:
• SickKids Hospital
• Canadian Ukraine Foundation
• Coats for Kids (Knights of Columbus)
• Ukrainian Canadian Social Services (Toronto) Inc.
• The Food Bank at Christ Church St. James

We are always inspired by the generosity and dedication of the Knights and their commitment to serving both the Ukrainian-Canadian community and the broader Toronto community.

Congratulations to Bohdan K., the lucky winner of the Raptors tickets — we hope you enjoy the game! 🏀

Act #78 of Our 100 Acts of Kindness – Candlelight Service of Remembrance at St. Demetrius the Great Martyr 🕯️

On Thursday, December 4th, we held our second Candlelight Service of Remembrance of the season — a meaningful opportunity for families and community members to honour those they continue to hold in their hearts, especially as we enter the holiday season.

This service took place at St. Demetrius the Great Martyr Parish, where the liturgy offered a quiet and prayerful space for reflection, comfort, and remembrance.

Our Cardinal team was honoured to welcome those in attendance, provide candles and commemorative ornaments, and offer support simply by being present with the families we’ve had the privilege to serve. After the service, we gathered for refreshments and conversation, creating a gentle moment of connection at the end of a reflective evening.

This annual tradition remains one of the most meaningful ways we come together as a community — united in remembrance, compassion, and hope.

📸 Below are a few photos from the evening capturing its warmth and peaceful spirit.
