Thanks so much once again to Secure-Rite for being an integral part of our PPE Day of Caring by allowing us to store product, sort & package it on site, and then distribute to our partner charities. Such an amazingly helpful contribution to the overall day. We appreciate the partnership and support of this kind and caring organization.
The Kelowna Chamber of Commerce is once again launching its ‘Top 40 Over 40 presented by BDO’, to celebrate individuals in the community over the age of 40.
These are people who showcase as mentors, champions and role models and who encourage and foster the future leaders of the community.
We're so excited that last week they highlighted Lucas Griffin, Owner and Founder of one of our Good Companies, Secure-Rite Mobile Storage ! That's so awesome...congrats!
Lucas Griffin, Owner and Founder of Secure-Rite Mobile Storage was born and raised in Kelowna, BC and launched Secure-Rite Mobile Storage Inc. in 2005. He has been closely involved in the startup of all five Secure-Rite locations in BC and Alberta, and is excited to establish more in the future. Lucas is passionate about business excellence, exceptional customer service, continuous improvement, and known for his community involvement.
Lucas has led the company through significant growth over the past sixteen years, starting with only a few staff members to over 30 employees today. Lucas has strategized and facilitated the opening of 5 locations with no signs of slowing down and has become a recognized leader in the industry, speaking on a variety of panels, participating in case studies, and is an active member of TEC Canada.
Community is a core value at Secure-Rite Mobile Storage – Lucas believes in giving back to the community through donations of time, products, and finances. Secure-Rite holds many social issues near and dear, including ending homelessness by working towards an affordable housing solution, minimizing the carbon footprint on the environment, providing experiences and opportunities for students and younger generations to learn applied skills, and creating access to resources or commodities for those in need.

Pairing up with local organizations to support families is so near and dear to our hearts. The Mission Creek Alliance Church is sponsoring a Syrian Refugee Family currently making their way to Canada, and we were happy to provide this mobile storage container for furniture storage until they get all set up at their new home in Kelowna.

There’s nothing like a little friendly competition to fuel a good cause! We raced against time with our friends over at Top Grade Tire, and we tied! As a result, both of our teams will be donating $500 to the BC Children's Hospital Foundation! Justin Bullock, thank you for being a great advocate for the children in our community and inspiring others to do some good!
United Way 'Day of Caring' PPE Drive-Thru - Impact Statement
Community Impact
By loaning Secure-Rite resources to facilitate:
• The logistics of 2 incoming deliveries
• 4 weeks of storage container rental donation
• 1 morning of volunteers on site sorting products
• 1 afternoon of local charities diving through the Secure Rite yard to safely pick up their boxes….
Your team were able to help United Way achieve the following impact in our local community….
The safe distribution to 46 local Okanagan charities and community programs of:
5200 sets of gloves
4320 Lysol wipes
50,000 non-medical masks
Over 100 bottles of sanitizer concentrate
The breakdown of the 46 organizations who took part serves the following primary social focus areas, which represent United Way’s 4 main priorities:
23% Children & Youth
35% Community Capacity Building / Resource & Referrals
20% Mental Health & Addictions
22% Poverty
Through the average number of clients served by each agency, the PPE distributed in one afternoon through the support of Secure Rite, has helped approximately 6440 local people per week, continue to safely access the services they need from our local agency partners on the ground.
And of those thousands of local people supported via this initiative…
• one teen being able to safely access free in-person counselling for their increasingly acute anxiety could be a life saved,
• one adult individual accessing safe weekly supports following a head injury could lead to the opportunity to confidently re-enter employment
• one senior continuing to participate in a safe weekly grocery shop with a volunteer could avoid them sinking into depression from isolation & increasing their needs from healthcare.
The impact your support has on making things like this happen can be much more far reaching that you think, and we value our ongoing relationship very highly. As you continue to shape the future impact Secure Rite would like to have in our local community, and any emerging areas of focus, please don’t hesitate to reach out if we can be of further assistance. Together we can make things happen, both small and big, that can often make a life changing difference.
How You Can Help
United Way Southern Interior BC operates multiple programs and events through the year, and are always looking to inspire new volunteers or donors in the work they do in our local community. They also work closely with anyone organising their own fundraiser where UW is a beneficiary, to ensure all participants are fully aware of the impact of their efforts on local vulnerable individuals.

We are so happy to have been involved in yet another great cause with United Way Southern Interior BC !
We love our partners and helping our community! The United Way Southern Interior BC joined us at our Kelowna yard to safely distribute PPE packages to 50 local charities in a socially distant, drive-thru fashion. #dayofcaring #locallove #onemillionmasksBC #mobilestorage #kindnessfitshere #lifefitshere #ppe
Grow Calgary is Canada's largest urban community farm that grows healthy and organic produce. With over 35,000 helpful volunteers since 2013, they donate everything they grow to 100+ social agencies and compassionate charities with food access programs in Calgary and the surrounding area. To name a few, they donate their fresh produce to the Veteran's Association Food Bank, Veteran's Health Program & Healthy Heroes. Grow Calgary also works with 20,000 children and students of all ages, ranging from Kindergarten to University. In the current pandemic, they work with hundreds of students that are homeschooling.
The donation of a 20’ Secure-Rite Mobile Storage unit has proven to be invaluable to the maintenance of the Grow Calgary Urban Community Farm; not only does the unit keep tools and equipment organized and out of the way, but the team has experienced zero theft or loss thanks to the security benefits that come with using a shipping container and the reinforced steel lock box provided.
