The Summer of Service kickoff is here, and this month’s newsletter is packed with ways to turn compassion into action. From small acts of kindness to powerful stories of community impact, these features show how each of us can make a difference.

This May, we’re highlighting awareness, well being, and meaningful impact—from Mental Health and Ichthyosis Awareness Month to service driven stories from our teams. You’ll also get a first look at our upcoming Summer of Service and new ways to come together and give back.

From turning donated sneakers into community impact to spotlighting People of Purpose, this month’s stories celebrate how our teams show up for others. You’ll also find an update from the FirstService Residential North Region Impact Collective, quick FirstService Relief Fund guide for home expenses, Earth Day ideas from across the organization, Women’s History Month highlights, a mental health 5K tradition, and a 100-year milestone worth cheering.

In this month’s Spotlight, you’ll find stories that remind us what it means to care for one another. We’re celebrating a meaningful milestone—more than $2M in Relief Fund support for teammates facing hardship—alongside a Black History Month exhibit honoring a century of innovation. You’ll also meet People of Purpose honoree Meaghan Ketcheson, see how volunteers help make prom possible for students in Toronto, and find ways to learn and stand with the MS community during Awareness Month. Plus, enjoy a heartfelt Valentine’s Day nurse appreciation moment, a reminder that giving back is even better together, and a look at upcoming events.

In this issue, you’ll find inspiring stories that showcase how our teams continue to uplift our communities and each other. From celebrating major milestones like the FirstService Relief Fund surpassing $2 million in grants, to highlighting team members making a difference in their communities, this issue is packed with meaningful moments.
