Giving Back To Our Communities This Holiday Season
We love giving back to the wonderful communities we are a part of! This year, at McDougall Insurance, each one of our branches will be giving back to a local charity in their community. We want to make the holidays a little more enjoyable for everyone. Below you will find the updated donations to the local charities for each of our branch locations from this holiday season.

Picton
Rosemary Markland from our Picton Office spearheaded a branch-wide donation to the Angel Tree in Prince Edward County. The charity was at risk of folding and some members in the community came together to keep it running. Thanks to Rosemary and the Picton Office they have supported a number of children this past holiday season with clothes/toys. The charity itself supported 325 children.
Winchester
Our Winchester office donated $300 to Naomi’s, which is a refuge/shelter for abused women and their children. Right now they centre is at capacity with 6 women and their children.
