Community Involvement
Throughout the year, Nick and his team participate in the Community Reader program at the Ottawa Opportunity School. This program offers an opportunity for positive community role models to connect with the children in the classroom over short stories.

At an early age, Nick was taught by family and friends the importance of focusing on family, character, spirit, and generosity. He understands the positive impacts of giving back to the community. Thus, he is an ardent supporter of many local fundraising events. Nick and his growing team not only volunteer but are also active members of the following local organizations.
