In a heartfelt demonstration of its enduring commitment to the local community, Verdun Windows has donated $5,000 to the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO)
OTTAWA, ON / ACCESS Newswire / April 15, 2025 / In a heartfelt demonstration of its enduring commitment to the local community, Verdun Windows has donated $5,000 to the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO), reaffirming its dedication to family values, regional support, and making a tangible difference in the lives of Ottawa families.
This donation marks the latest chapter in Verdun Windows' long-standing relationship with CHEO, a partnership that has spanned years and underscores the company's identity as more than just a home improvement provider-it's a local institution with a deep-rooted investment in the well-being of its neighbors.
"We're a company built on family values," said a Verdun Windows spokesperson. "And for us, there's no better way to reflect those values than by supporting an organization like CHEO, which stands as a pillar of care and hope for so many families in our community."
More Than Just Windows: A Legacy of Local Impact
For over four decades, Verdun Windows has served Ottawa and the surrounding regions with high-quality, energy-efficient windows and doors. Established in the early 1980s, Verdun has grown from a modest family operation into one of Ontario's most respected window and door manufacturers. But even as the company has expanded in scale and scope, it has never lost sight of its local roots.
Giving back has always been part of Verdun's core philosophy. Whether it's through sponsoring local events, supporting charitable organizations, or simply investing in people through meaningful employment and craftsmanship, Verdun has consistently prioritized community.
The relationship with CHEO is a particularly meaningful one. In addition to the recent $5,000 donation, Verdun has been a proud supporter of the annual CHEO BBQ-an event that brings the community together to raise funds and awareness for the hospital's many vital programs. This recurring involvement has helped build a relationship grounded in mutual respect and shared values.
"CHEO holds a special place in our hearts," the spokesperson added. "Their work touches thousands of lives, and we're honored to play even a small part in supporting their mission."
Supporting CHEO: A Community Cornerstone
The Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario is one of Canada's premier pediatric health-care institutions, serving children, youth, and families from across Eastern Ontario, Western Quebec, Nunavut, and parts of Northern Ontario. CHEO provides a comprehensive range of services-from emergency and surgical care to mental health services and chronic disease management.
As a teaching and research hospital, CHEO is also at the forefront of innovation in pediatric medicine. It consistently ranks among the top hospitals in patient satisfaction, clinical care, and research breakthroughs. However, this excellence comes at a cost-one that relies heavily on donor support.
"Community donations like the one from Verdun Windows are essential," said a CHEO Foundation representative. "They help us invest in life-saving equipment, fund innovative research, and ensure our young patients receive the best possible care, when they need it most."
Tthe $5,000 donation will go toward critical areas of need within the hospital, potentially supporting pediatric research, patient programs, or infrastructure upgrades designed to enhance comfort and care for children and their families.
Craftsmanship and Care Go Hand in Hand
While Verdun Windows is best known for its exceptional products-especially its proprietary RevoCell windows-the heart of the company lies in its people. All of Verdun's products are manufactured in-house at their Ottawa facility, allowing for unparalleled quality control, faster turnaround times, and greater flexibility in customization.
The RevoCell window line exemplifies Verdun's commitment to sustainable innovation. Using microcellular PVC (mPVC), RevoCell windows provide superior insulation, structural integrity, and energy efficiency-key traits for Canadian homeowners facing long winters and rising energy costs. These windows are not only built to last, but also to reduce the carbon footprint of every home they serve.
This focus on sustainability has not gone unnoticed. Verdun Windows has earned Special Recognition Awards from ENERGY STAR in both 2023 and 2024 for its leadership in environmental stewardship and product innovation.
"Our team is proud to create products that help homeowners save energy and protect the environment," said the spokesperson. "But we're equally proud of the culture we've built-a culture that values people, relationships, and doing the right thing."
A Culture of Giving, A Future of Growth
As Verdun celebrates over 40 years in business, the company remains as committed as ever to its founding principles: quality, integrity, and community. Over the decades, Verdun has navigated industry changes, economic cycles, and evolving customer expectations-not by chasing trends, but by staying true to its values.
One of those values is giving back. Whether it's through financial donations, event sponsorships, or simply showing up to support a local cause, Verdun has always believed that businesses have a role to play beyond the bottom line.
The donation to CHEO is a reflection of this philosophy. It's not just a financial gesture-it's a symbol of what Verdun stands for and who they serve. "We believe that real success is about more than numbers," said the company spokesperson. "It's about the impact you have on the people around you. This community has supported us for over 40 years. Supporting CHEO is one way we say thank you."
Looking Ahead
With the housing market in transition and sustainability at the forefront of consumer concerns, Verdun Windows is uniquely positioned for continued growth. The company's in-house manufacturing model, high-performance product line, and efficient installation services set it apart from competitors, particularly in a market where timelines and quality are critical.
But perhaps more importantly, Verdun's customer-first approach and deep community ties give it a rare kind of brand loyalty-one built on trust, reliability, and mutual respect. As Verdun Windows looks to the future, their focus remains on serving the Ottawa community with excellence, and leading by example-whether it's in manufacturing innovation or making a difference where it matters most.
"We're proud of what we've accomplished over the past four decades," the spokesperson concluded. "But we're even more excited about what's ahead. We're not just building windows. We're building a stronger, more connected community-one home, and one good deed, at a time."
