Stanpro’s Katy’s Donation Day Breaks Record, Giving Back to Communities Across Canada

December 15, 2025

Stanpro is proud to announce the results of its annual Katy’s Donation Day, held on December 3, 2025. This year, the initiative resulted in a record donation of over $100,000, making this the highest contribution in the history of this program.

The funds raised will be distributed to over 80 charitable organizations coast to coast, including initiatives that work locally in each province as well as nationally recognized organizations such as:
•    Autism Society of Canada
•    Children’s Make-A-Wish Foundation
•    Jack.Org (Mental Health)
•    Canadian Breast Cancer Society

“This donation will be directed to vital initiatives including healthcare, medical research, poverty alleviation, Women’s Rights, animal protection, family services, and many others, making a real difference in communities across Canada,” said Daniela Di Pietro, Executive Vice President of Finance of Ascot Capital Group.


“It is incredibly moving to see the engagement from our customers, partners, suppliers, and employees,” said David Nathaniel, CEO of Ascot Capital Group. “I am grateful to everyone who placed their orders on this day and to our teams for their collaboration and dedication. This event reinforces Stanpro’s commitment to perpetuating Katy’s legacy of kindness by giving back to help Canadians build a better future. We look forward to coming together again next year, breaking records once more, and expanding our support to even more causes.”
