Tricar Invests in the Future

Every successful business knows that smart investment makes a difference. They understand that investing in the right places encourages long-term thinking and invites pause to reflect on changes needed for a better future. More than just intention, however, investing also requires action and commitment to bring ideas and dreams to life.

Investing in the future is something that the team at The Tricar Group (known to many as simply Tricar) does well. As successful community builders in cities across southern Ontario, they have been investing in Guelph for years through the hundreds of apartment and condominium homes they have built in our community. This tradition of thoughtful investing was recently amplified with their generous leadership gift of $50,000 to the Home for Good Campaign.

As a leader in housing, Tricar knows the importance of investing in homes for everyone in a community. This is one of the reasons they develop quality rentals and condominiums, knowing that individuals and families at different life stages need multiple housing options. These housing options include permanent supportive housing that the Home for Good Campaign is helping to bring to life in Guelph and Wellington.

“We were immediately drawn to the Home for Good campaign for a number of reasons,” commented Adam Carapella Vice-President at Tricar. “We were thoroughly impressed by the Home for Good leadership team and their vision around collaboration. We also were inspired by how the campaign wanted to educate and create awareness about the vital role that permanent supportive housing plays in a healthy community. We know that the solution to our current housing pressures is more options focused on specific needs. We are grateful to the Home for Good campaign and their work to create safe, warm and meaningful housing for the Guelph community.”

This gift aligns with Tricar’s holistic and quiet approach to making a difference in the communities they operate in. With a long history of giving back, Tricar’s gift to the Home for Good campaign is a reflection of a corporate value that has driven their success since day one: they are not just building homes. They are investing in communities.
