We at The Adam Dirksen Real Estate Team understand the importance of giving back to the community,  helping the less fortunate and those in need at home and abroad.  Because of this we support the following charities!

Stollery Childrens Hospital

The Stollery Children's Hospital is comitted to meeting the ever changing health needs of children in an enviroment that integrates excellence in the delivery of care, education and research.  We are proud to give a portion of every home sold though our team!

Alberta Cancer Foundation

The Alberta Cancer Foundation raises funds for the Alberta Cancer Board. Together, these two organizations work toward a world without cancer for future generations. The motivation to give comes from the memory of a loved one who has lost the battle with the disease and the hope for future research to help loved ones who have been diagnosed with cancer.  Every gift is another step towards a healthier and happier tomorrow for all Albertans. 

100% of donations bring about innovative new cancer treatments…purchase vital technology…help families facing financial difficulties during cancer treatments…set up prevention and screening programs that save lives … and support research projects that will improve the quality of care and outcomes for Albertans and across the globe. Giving is a gift of compassion, this is money well spent.

The Ben Sawatzky Foundation

 The Dominican Project:

The Ben Sawatzky Foundation (BSF) was founded in 1997 by Ben and Dori Sawatzky. Their four children and daugher-in-law serve on their board of directors with them. 

The BSF seeks to play a role in breaking the seemly endless cycle of poverty and despair seen in so many parts of the world, by supporting projects that seek to bring relief to the immediate physical, emotional, educational, and spiritual needs of orphans and those living in extreme poverty. 

They have participated in projects that include organizing humanitarian trips, installing clean water systems, assisting in entrepreneurship and micro finance, and supporting disaster relief efforts. Their main focus, however, has been the construction of new homes, orphanages, schools, churches, and vocational  centres. 

These projects are largely locally operated, so as to encourage local ownership and greater independence.

True sustainable development and advancement are not possible without both academic and vocational opportunity. To that end, The foundation is committed to supporting educational facilities both locally and internationally.  

We at the Adam Dirksen Real Estate Team are proud to say that we are helping donate to this worthy cause. 

The Adam Dirksen Real Estate Team has now successfully contributed to 13 homes being built in the Villa Spruceland Paradise. We will continue throughout the year to help change more lives by provided a safe place to call home.

October 2009 Kirsten attended a 2 week humanitarian trip.
A life changing and rewarding experience!
