Here’s some info about Inn From The Cold Society and how they transform the lives of families in need…

Established in 1997, Inn from the Cold Society (IFTC), is a non profit Calgary-based charity helping families with children (expecting mothers included) that are, or may be at risk of becoming homeless, while also offering a wide range of services including homelessness prevention, supportive housing, emergency shelter, clothing, food and employment assistance.

In their own words, at IFTC “we go far beyond the provision of basic needs and offer shelter, sanctuary, and healing through an integrated continuum of services. Our door is open 24/7, 365 days a year, and we turn no family away.”¹

Inn from the Cold Society is proud to have been listed as a top 10 charity for Canadian Impact by Charity Intelligence.

What people say about Inn from the Cold Society:

“I had an awesome volunteer experience in which I was able to help make sandwiches, serve dinner and desserts especially for kids. I am very happy to help and will probably do it again soon.”² – Yyc Joy Abayon

“Incredible organization providing shelter, sanctuary and healing for Calgary’s homeless children and families, I applaud your hard work and efforts!”³ – Valerie Cutler

“I truly think this is still the best program in Calgary helping homeless families get back on their feet again. Since starting Feb 2016 once a month volunteering with downtown IFTC, I believe they have wonderful staff, facilities and volunteer base. Keep up the good work IFTC and Calgary!!!”⁴ – Tim Blackwell

“I have been volunteering here with their SPINZ program through a client of mine. I first think it’s wonderful that my client engages in these types of social activities, it’s good to see, and it’s something I love to do. This last time we were there, I actually got my husband, co-worker and her boyfriend to all do it together. It was tons of fun! It’s an awesome time and for a good cause. If you’re in need, check it out, or if you want to help, also check it out.”⁵ – from an IFTC volunteer

Giving Generously 2021 – Our Social Responsibility Campaign

People helping people is how we deliver better business insurance. ALIGNED is known for consistently delivering a better insurance experience to Canadian businesses. Each and every day, we do this by:

• Being fiercely independent – our brokerage is 100% owned by us, not by any insurance company 
• Doing what we say we’re going to do when we say we’re going to do it
• Fulfilling our social responsibility to help others

Since 2014, we’ve donated to more than 40 Canadian charities through our social responsibility initiatives. We know it’s a privilege to handle our clients’ insurance needs and that’s why GIVING frequently, consistently and GENEROUSLY is essential to all of us.

Each year, a portion of ALIGNED Insurance profits are donated to a Canadian charity that is nominated by an ALIGNED client. During the Giving Generously campaign, people vote by visiting web pages that ALIGNED builds to celebrate each charity and the great work they do. 

Our annual Giving Generously donation is made to the registered Canadian charity that receives the most “votes” which are recorded as web page sessions.

If you have any questions about Giving Generously or would like to know more about how an ALIGNED Insurance Advocate can get you connected with better business insurance, simply email assistants@alignedinsurance.com.
