Community Sponsor: Canadian Tire

Canadian Tire Etobicoke is very proud to be a sponsor of the 2010 Urban Hero Awards.

Every community is made up of ‘lifter’ and ‘leaners’ and Etobicoke is no different. This  award gives us all an opportunity to recognize those people who lift up our community through their hard work and dedication to one another and the causes important to them.

With the number of ‘lifters’ in Etobicoke, it must be difficult to choose only a select few.

All nominees should be celebrated for the significant role they play in our community. Good luck to all of our Heroes.
