We’re proud to share that Thrive Community Support Circle has been awarded a $3,000 Intact Community Grant, thanks to a nomination from Julie Guevarra of JEM Insurance.

The grant was presented at Thrive’s new building at 555 Spence Street, where community leaders and partners came together to celebrate this meaningful contribution. Pictured at the presentation are Tyler Blashko, MLA for Lagimodiere (on behalf of the Minister of Education); Rhonda Elias-Penner, Executive Director of Thrive; Miroslav Cajic, Business Development Representative from Intact Insurance; and Julie Guevarra from JEM Insurance.

To further support Thrive’s incredible work, Emerito and Julie from JEM Insurance personally matched the $3,000 donation, doubling the impact to help them continue building stronger, more resilient communities.

At JEM Insurance, we’re passionate about giving back and supporting organizations that make a real difference. Thrive Community Support Circle provides essential programs and services that empower individuals and families—and we’re honoured to play a small part in helping them thrive.
