Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton

Living to the rhythm of generosity and solidarity

The contribution of Leaders to the Centraide campaign at Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton was exceptional in 2011. The number of donors of $1,000 or more rocketed from 8 to 56.

The firm’s Leadership campaign, which focused on awareness and personalization, was conducted in a masterly manner by senior management, who demonstrated exemplary altruism by participating in all stages of the solicitation process.

The campaign began with a launch breakfast with the partners. This event featured testimony of personal involvement by the leader of a company that was also a partner in Centraide’s campaign.

Personalized emails were then sent by the vice-presidents, who also followed up individually on the partners to promote payroll giving.

By demonstrating that Centraide’s cause means a lot to them at all stages of the solicitation process, the partners set the tone for the campaign and led the firm to confirm its great generosity.
