Grand Philharmonic Choir
Choral music celebrates community. The singers are not soloists, but members of a close-knit team. The sound they make together is greater than the sum of each individual voice. And there are health benefits, too: Recent scholarly research in the United States, Wales and Sweden shows that when choir members sing together, their heartbeats synchronize, and they are better able to combat pain, stress and disease. GPC is celebrating 99 years of choral singing!

Mississauga Humane Society
Mississauga Humane Society (MHS) is a registered non-profit, no-kill charity, founded in 1999. We have grown over the years, but the mission remains the same: to save as many animals as possible.
The organization runs on the unpaid labour of an extensive network of passionate volunteers and six dedicated board members. Our volunteers rescue and foster hundreds of cats and dogs every year in Mississauga and beyond.
Having many caring foster homes enables us to operate without the high cost of an animal shelter and allows homeless dogs and cats to thrive in a home environment until they are adopted.
MitoCanada Foundation
Every one of us is fuelled by trillions of microscopic powerhouses called mitochondria. These tiny, mighty, energy-producing structures generate the energy we need to survive. Our major organs use the most energy so when mitochondria fail, we struggle to think, breath, move and live. We are all at risk of inheriting or developing mitochondrial disease. It can affect anyone at any age. There is no cure. There is, however, hope! MitoCanada is the only national foundation dedicated to creating a world where all lives are powered by healthy mitochondria.
