Farrow is delighted to announce the recent donations to several charities across Canada and the U.S. which are located near Farrow office locations, totaling $34,500 – including a $10,000 personal donation from Rick Farrow!
Donating to local charities during the holiday season is a Farrow tradition dating back to 2008. For generations, the Farrow organization and family have supported charities across both Canada and the U.S., and actively contribute to the communities where it operates.
