Building Our Community

Beyond the Build

Community is the why behind our work at Tomlinson. Through the Tomlinson Family Foundation and local programs, we’re committed to giving back in ways that make a lasting impact. From grassroots initiatives to city-wide infrastructure support, our goal is to build strong communities where individuals and families can flourish.

Our Foundation

Local Giving. Long-Term Impact.

The Tomlinson Family Foundation is dedicated to serving the community through company- and employee-driven initiatives. From long-standing programs like the 50/50 draw, where small donations add up to significant local impact, to ongoing support for organizations like Boys and Girls Club of Ottawa, the Foundation’s efforts reflect our commitment to community building and social stewardship.

Our Outreach

Family is Our Foundation

Officially designated as a non-profit in 2016, the Tomlinson Family Foundation is committed to supporting and strengthening local communities by fostering charitable initiatives that make a lasting impact. Building on Tomlinson’s longstanding tradition of giving, the Foundation encourages participation from employees, suppliers, service providers, and the broader network of partners we work with. Our goal is to support a diverse range of youth and mental health organizations that help meet the needs of the population.

Our 
Vision

Rooted in the values of the Tomlinson Family and backed by the Tomlinson Group of Companies, the Foundation exists to make a positive, lasting impact in the communities where we live and work. Guided by a legacy of generosity and leadership, we aim to give back through meaningful charitable support.

Our 
Mission

Tomlinson is committed to aiding programs and organizations that directly improve the health and wellbeing of people within our cities. We aim to enable families to live healthy lifestyles by improving public infrastructure, supporting youth programs, and donating to local communities.
