Momentum Ventures, a venture capitalist firm based out of Montreal, Quebec, Canada,had been keeping busy with a variety of initiatives that aim to create a positive impact on their environment and help the causes they care about. Last 2016, Momentum Ventures had started handing out monetary donations to charities and society organisations that they believe in, just like they believe in their own subsidiary businesses. Distributed throughout 2016 is a total of $75,000 in cash donations which is an amount that Momentum Ventures employees voted for, along with their chosen charities.

In February of that year, the company donated a total of $25,500 to the Canadian Cancer Society, and then $25,000 to Unicef Canada in March 2016. “With the Canadian Cancer Society donation made earlier this year we were able to help make a donation that could help people across Canada, with this donation [Unicef Canada] we are able to extend our helping hand to those across the world,” Momentum Ventures CEO Matthew Keezer said of the latter, adding, “we look forward to future donations to worthy causes over the course of 2016.”
Companies that had established themselves in the industry have a tendency towards giving back to their community, being more generous to and creating a work-friendlier environment for their employees, or finding causes they could align themselves with their growth:
On top of the 2016 donations, CEO Matt Keezer and his team extended their season’s greetings to two Montreal families to have a merry Christmas with a combined $3,600 in material benefits and assistance covering winter clothing, toys, transit passes, and other essentials. Under Keezer’s management, the company also initiated a 50% car subsidy to make purchasing eco-friendly hybrid and electric cars more of a reality, in consecutive years’ moves to make Momentum Ventures an environmentally- and socially-friendly workplace.
