In a display of community spirit and collaboration, The Daniels Corporation and Choice Properties REIT joined forces for Habitat for Humanity GTA's Team Build Day on Wednesday, December 6th. Taking place at the Daniels Mount Pleasant Village (MPV) development site in Brampton, the event championed the cause of affordable homeownership during this season of giving.
The Team Build Day saw members from Daniels, Choice Properties, and Habitat GTA come together, actively engaging in the construction process for Phase 1 of MPV. This involvement went beyond the physical building of homes, with the broader goals of fostering team cohesion, and ensuring that deserving families have the foundation for a brighter future.
The Habitat Build Day is a unique opportunity for corporate teams from diverse backgrounds to come together in a concerted effort to build more than homes. Under the expert guidance of Habitat GTA's experienced crew leaders, participants learn invaluable skills, fostering a sense of unity and purpose. These Build Days transcend typical team-building activities, serving as a powerful catalyst for community enrichment and personal growth.
Daniels Mount Pleasant Village is a master-planned, multi-phased residential development offering a mix of living options, located at Bovaird Drive and Creditview Road on the doorstep of Mount Pleasant GO station. Phase 1 comprises a mix of condominium and rental buildings ranging from 3 to 26 storeys, along with townhomes. Phase 2 introduces two 6-storey apartment complexes and a blend of a 11- and 14-storey condominiums alongside 3-storey townhomes.
This new condominium community, designed to cater to a diverse range of needs including both rental and ownership opportunities, aims to elevate living standards in the area. Daniels, with a history of over a decade of building in Brampton, has consistently championed a 'people-first' ethos. This philosophy is reflected in their partnership with Choice Properties in developing Daniels Mount Pleasant Village. The collaboration extends to enhancing the economic well-being and social fabric of the community, their joint effort in building a new townhome for a Habitat partner family is a result of their ongoing efforts in building strong, resilient communities.
The partnership between Daniels and Habitat for Humanity GTA spans over two decades and has profoundly impacted nearly 100 families across the GTA. This long-standing relationship was celebrated in 2022 when Daniels received the Developer for Humanity Lifetime Achievement Award from Habitat for Humanity GTA. This accolade recognized their commitment to affordable homeownership and their contributions to the socio-economic development of communities.
Ene Underwood, CEO of Habitat for Humanity GTA, has lauded the efforts of Daniels and Choice Properties in creating opportunities for families to realize the strength, stability, and possibility that comes from owning a home. The Team Build Day was a step towards unlocking change for generations through the building of affordable homes.
