CALGARY – Shaw is imagining what millions of Canadians can do together.
That feeling of unity, and the strength that comes from being part of a community, is the goal of the ‘Together is Amazing’ movement recently launched by Shaw. The charitable initiative uses Shaw Cable, Shaw Direct, Shaw Tracking, Shaw Broadcast and Shaw Business Solutions – and their extensive geographic footprint, to provide Canadians with a springboard they can use to connect, share, inspire and create.
"We believe that when acting together, people can create magic. They can bring the impossible to life”, said EVP Brad Shaw, in a statement on Wednesday. "At Shaw we have an incredible network that connects millions of people around the world every day. We wanted to take the power of that connection and turn it into something wonderful. ‘Together is Amazing’ gives momentum to ideas by allowing people to join together to accomplish more as a group than they could ever do alone."
Communities are invited to engage on-line at the website togetherisamazing.com There, people will find a forum to promote their ideas and events, while individuals or groups can connect with others who have the same interests, and use the website to bring ideas to life.
To demonstrate the power of togetherness, Shaw is kicking off a national ‘Fill the Food Banks’ initiative, where communities in the Shaw footprint will be working to fill local food banks across the country.
"We have an unstoppable spirit at Shaw and as Canadians”, Shaw continued. "It’s part of our national identity that individuals can do amazing things – and we know that when we come together there’s nothing we can’t do. ‘Together is Amazing’ is an opportunity to extend ourselves because together we are stronger than we are individually."
