Veritas Holiday Food Drive
Thank you to all the donors of our holiday food drive for Weston Area Emergency Support (WAES). We raised more than $4,500. With the money raised, Veritas employees, family and friends went shopping to donate the food directly to WAES.
Here is the thankyou letter that Diana Stapleton, Chair and Correspondence Secretary of the W.A.E.S. Steering Committee, wrote to us about the growing need for more donations.
We have raised $17,500 in previous food drives for WAES.
We are still taking donations. Thank you to everyone who has donated!

History of the Buddies Open
In 1994, the North West Devils were awarded $500 for winning the Bill Bolton Consolation Men's Hockey Championship. Excited but not knowing what to do with the bounty, the team decided to use the funds for a golf tournament and BBQ. The event was so successful that it became a charitable ritual.
Nearly all the original Devils continue to participate in the tourney (though none have ever won), but much has changed. Most notably, the bachelors have become fathers, making their wives and children part of the Buddies.
Veritas employees and their families, as well as many of our clients and associates, have also joined.
Over the years we've raised almost $140,000.
