Credential Financial Inc. and its sister company, The Ethical Funds Company will be sending 20 young people home during the holidays through a financial donation to Covenant House, an emergency crisis shelter for abused, abandoned and homeless youth.

“This is the second year in a row that we have made a significant donation to a charitable organization at this critical time of year,” says Don Rolfe, president and CEO of Credential Financial and Ethical Funds. “Covenant House provides year-round vital shelter and services to homeless youth.”

Credential’s and Ethical Funds’ support for Covenant House is earmarked for sending young people home during the holiday season. The shelter operates in Toronto and Vancouver providing much needed support to 16-24 year-olds who are living on the street.

In 2005, Credential and Ethical Funds made a donation to World Vision, supporting a village in Africa with a fully stocked medical clinic, livestock, water and school supplies.
