From May 27th, 2022, until June 2nd, 2022, the Americas teams walked their boots off as part of this year's NES Fircroft “KindNES” program.

The region planned a fitness challenge designed to raise funds for The United Way in support of education, mental health, and employment for the betterment of all communities.

Their challenge for the week was to walk 10 million steps, the distance it would take from the Bonnyville office in Canada to the office in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago.

We are delighted to report that the Americas region smashed their target while also raising an outstanding $30,000 for the United Way charity.

This amount is the result of a contribution from the NES KindNES foundation, and the fantastic fundraising efforts of our colleagues. Many thanks to everyone who got involved and helped us to raise such a large amount for this very worthy cause.

Darcy Pashak, Director of Operation in Canada says:

A huge thank you to the NES Americas Team for coming together as a region and smashing the 10,000,000 step challenge and furthermore raising much needed funds that will go to support education, mental health and employment for the betterment in the communities in which we operate in. An event like this requires a lot of planning, so thank you to our committee members and the United Way for providing the fabulous support to make this all happen.
