SCS Cares
SCS has partnered with Geranium and have donated many sleeping bags to send to Ukrainian refugees. Many Ukrainians have fled the country and have had to stay at refugee shelters or camps. These sleeping bags will make a huge difference to help give them comfort and keep them warm. We thank everyone who donated and we continue to keep our Ukrainian colleagues and their families in our thoughts and prayers.

Movember
It was a November for the books!! THE MUSTACHE MADE ME DO IT charity event brought out the SCS competitive spirit in support of Movember. We made mascots and memes, competed in obstacle courses, feats of strength, and SQUIM Games. We got to witness the debut of The Silver Jimmies and a couple of our favourite colleagues getting a pie in the face. All the while rocking some fine-looking mustaches.
Thank you to all for participating, tuning in, and donating!! We raised an incredible $7,585 for men’s health!!
