Just Cause
Just Cause started with Kim and Al Bouwmeester identifying a need of individuals looking for work in the community through the Food Pantry, Ontario Works Programs and other social services. They decided to start a company that would help individuals get “off the system” by offering them employment opportunities in an empathetic and goal-oriented setting.
