Giving Back

We are proud to work alongside many different organizations, charities, and initiatives that are making a difference locally and around the world. Check out some of the amazing initiatives we are currently helping to support.

Vretta Supports Reforestation in Canada

On Earth Day, Vretta partnered with Evertreen to support a reforestation initiative by planting 2,000 trees in Canada. This initiative complements Vretta’s existing sustainability practices, including energy-efficient operations, green data centres, e-waste reduction, sustainable product design, green building certifications, and the use of eco-friendly technologies and practices. By partnering with Evertreen, Vretta reaffirms their deep commitment to their environmental and sustainable initiatives, including carbon offsetting to make a tangible impact on the environment in Canada and beyond.

Working Together to Support Our Students

Seneca has for years sustained a commendable initiative to provide financial aid to students in need, and has contributed to the larger mission of promoting education accessibility through their Campaign for Students initiative, which consists of various fundraising projects and activities that have been helping many students to continue pursuing their education. Vretta-Lyryx had the honor to support this cause by collaborating on the Seneca Business Online Auction, with all proceeds directed toward assisting students financially.

Supporting Educators in Nepal

The Educator and Leadership Institute (ELI) has impacted educators globally, through professional courses and workshops, which have helped enrich the educational experience for countless students in various regions. Through seven years of dedicated work, ELI-Nepal, a comprehensive multi-day program empowering educators in Nepal, have left an indelible mark supporting the capacity of educators in the region. As a proud partner of the ELI initiative for many years, Vretta collaborated with ELI-Nepal distributing tote bags to educators, as a show of gratitude for their importance in shaping the future.

Supporting Seneca students during the pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect students at Seneca: 79% are experiencing financial hardship, 75% have had their employment affected, and 90% are feeling anxiety and uncertainty about their future plans. Vretta continued to support Seneca students during the pandemic through their financial contribution, Entrepreneurial Numeracy Skills platform, mathematics rewards, and strategic advising to enable student-entrepreneurs at Seneca-HELIX start and grow their businesses.

Supporting COVID-19 Healthcare Professionals

Canadian hospitals required continuous support to ensure all healthcare professionals have the necessary provisions and equipment to continue care for COVID-19 patients. Vretta supported a reputed charity called CanadaHelps that enables hospitals to scale up their operations, ensuring healthcare professionals have the necessary equipment to care for COVID-19 patients needing treatment. Vretta’s contribution provided equipment and critical medical aid, including personal protective equipment for frontline healthcare providers.

Supporting Teaching and Leadership Capacity

The Educator and Leadership Institute (ELI) is an organization that builds teaching and leadership capacity in communities globally through professional courses and workshops. The objective of ELI is to positively impact the learning outcomes of students and educators in Haiti, Nepal, Egypt, Ethiopia, Kenya, and Ghana. Vretta’s partnership with ELI to support their vision involves the design, development, hosting, and maintenance of the ELI web and online resource portal for its effective use in all the low internet bandwidth areas.
