CSN Sponsoring Community Fundraising Events
CSN Collision Clinic – Enriching Lives for 20 years
For 20 years, the CSN Collision Clinic Enriching Lives program has helped families in need of transportation by reconditioning and offering vehicles to them. Along with the gift of a car, CSN Collision Clinic, with the support of several sponsors such as PPG, Bumper to Bumper, Norton, and Enterprise, also provides the vehicle’s first year of insurance, summer and winter tyres, gas cards and family gifts. How it works:
- CSN Collision Clinic uploads the application form to its website and publicizes the program to the local community
- Families in the community fill out applications on CSN Collision Clinic’s website
- Applicants must provide a driver’s license and a letter explaining how the vehicle will benefit their lives
- After applications close, CSN Collision Clinic submits all applications to an external committee
- The committee reviews the applications and conducts reference checks to ensure suitability
- The committee decides on the successful recipient; the process is tight as the family needs to be able to maintain vehicle ownership and all it entails after the first year.

CSN Sponsors Twins’ Causes Event in Orléans
On Friday, August 25th, at the Hammond Golf Club in the Orléans area, twins Denise (Sauve) Hoffman and Denis Sauve, owner of CSN Orléans, are organising their 7th annual Twins’ Causes golf tournament. This event is a fundraiser for causes such as Make-a-Wish, Breast Cancer Action (BCA)/The Kelly Project and the Orleans-Cumberland Community Resource Centre (OCCRC).
Although Denise and Denis have succeeded in raising over $145,000, their objective is to keep improving and expanding the tournament to raise more for the causes they support. Entry is $135 per golfer; this includes a meal, golf, cart, and a gift bag. Attendees are also invited to participate in other activities and contests during the day, such as a putting contest, longest drive, silent auction and many more!

Women in Insurance Cancer Crusade (WICC)
As part of our ongoing commitment to give back to our communities, CSN is delighted to sponsor the upcoming 2023 events in Calgary, Alberta:
The Women in Insurance Cancer Crusade (WICC) fundraiser taking place on July 6th from 3:30 to 8:30pm. The Alberta Chapter of the Women in Insurance Cancer Crusade was started in late 1999. The goal set out by the founders of WICC AB was to raise $1M in 10 years which they achieved on the 10-year anniversary of the Alberta Chapter.
The fundraiser has been in place for over 30 years in a social setting that encourages networking and opportunities to donate to WICC. Attendees include businesses that are part of the insurance industry such as restoration companies, insurance companies, and auto repair companies. At the event taking place in a local brewery called Bitter Sisters, participants will be treated to a live band, food, drinks, games, 50/50 draws, and a raffle. As one of the event sponsors, CSN will have a tent for marketing, so stop by and say hi!
SugarShack Fundraising Event
The SugarShack party taking place at the Cowboy’s Music Festival Centre from 4pm, July 6th. SugarShack co-chair, David Brown shares, “SugarShack is a party that started out in a backyard with friends in 1999. It has always taken place on “Sneak-a-Peek Night” (the Thursday before the Stampede Parade kicks off). In 1996, the SugarShack party was turned into a fundraiser for various charities including – Kids Cancer Care Foundation, Alberta Cancer Foundation, PASC, Defeat Duchennes Canada, and JDRF. We have raised $457k since we started fundraising, with the help of ticket sales and amazing sponsors such as CSN. Despite the event scaling up over the years, we’ve still maintained the “backyard hang out with friends” vibe. We welcome everyone to come attend, have fun, and help raise funds for the charities we support all while enjoying live performances from the Orange Whip band and Dustin Lynch. Tickets to the event can be purchased here – https://www.showpass.com/sugarshackcmf/ and their proceeds will go to these foundations – Kids Cancer Care Foundation, Defeat Duchennes Canada, and Gems for Gems.”
