DHC Participating in Hope Air’s Haul for Hope Events

This September, DHC is sponsoring Hope Air’s Haul for Hope fundraising events in Calgary and Toronto.  As part of our sponsorship, we will have a team of 12 volunteers in each location pull a 67,500 pound Dash 8 airplane for a distance of 100 metres! 

This Thursday, September 12, our Calgary team will head to the YYC International Airport to race against the clock to pull the Dash 8 across the finish line. If you would like to donate to the team, please check out our Calgary team donation page

Our Toronto team will take to the tarmac on September 28. They also have a Toronto team donation page, but rest assured all of the money raised will go to the same initiative.
