SERVPRO Water Station, helping thirsty runners during the Rogers Run for L'Arche

The SERVPRO of Calgary South team is not only dedicated to helping property owners recover after a disaster, we also love to help within our community. This March 2019, the SERVPRO of Calgary South team participated in the Rogers Run for L’Arche.  L’Arche Calgary has five locations in the city offering a Supported Independent Living Program and a Day Program. L’Arche supports 29 people with developmental disabilities in Calgary and have been operating since 1973 (https://www.larchecalgary.org/). L’Arche is a global organization doing great work in 38 countries, including 29 communities within Canada.

The Rogers Run for L’Arche started in 2011 and since then has raised almost half a million dollars, with all proceeds going towards L’Arche. We were honoured to be able to hold down a water station for the day, cheering on every thirsty runner. It was truly a great event, for a great cause and SERVPRO of Calgary South is already looking forward to next year!
