Supporting Charity
Every two years the Downtown Business Association chooses a charitable organization, based in Downtown or providing services to the Downtown core.
We are very proud to announce that for 2020 & 2021 our charity of choice will be CCI-LEX. Since 2003, CCI-LEX has been changing the lives of thousands of newcomers to Edmonton by promoting the personal growth of adult learners through English language instruction and the exchange of cultural knowledge.
Throughout the year the DBA helps to raise money and awareness for this charity of choice through its luncheons, annual events, and awareness campaigns.
