Developing local partnerships in support of community initiatives in and around Burlington, Oakville, and Hamilton

SB Partners Education Scholarship Fund

The SB Partners Education Scholarship, established in 2007, provided $3,000 ($5,000 from 2024) annually. This scholarship is presented to a deserving Burlington High School student intending to pursue further education in accounting or business.

The fund was established and is managed by the Burlington Foundation and the scholarship award is rotated between the Burlington high schools each year.

Burlington Hospital Foundation

In 2020, we matched $2500 raised through fundraising with an additional $2500 to support the Joseph Brant Hospital Foundation in supplying personal protection equipment to our front-line workers and hospital staff to help protect them during the pandemic.

In 2023, we made a $25,000 pledge (spread over 5 years) to Joseph Brant Hospital Foundation to help ensure all individuals facing mental health and addiction (MHA) challenges receive timely and effective care.

We proudly support the Women in Leadership and Philanthropy events hosted by the foundation.

United Way Hamilton and Halton

At a time when more than 143,562 individuals and families will rely on United Way Programs, our commitment to supporting our community remains firm.

Throughout the year, we support the United Way through a fundraising week, participating in Sleepless for our Community, and sponsoring events.

In 2023 our fundraising week raised over $17,000.
