Amble with Angus


Every year one of Ideaca's partner's Angus Cowan hosts "Amble with Angus" which is a 5k "fun run" in downtown Calgary in support of the Calgary Food Bank.

This was its 10th year, and it was a great success!

Holiday Cheer around the Toronto Ideaca Office


On an annual basis, Ideaca “adopts” less fortunate families during the Holiday Season. Employees across the organization volunteer to purchase toys, groceries, clothes and make cash donations for the families.

This year we were extremely successful in adopting three different families, and providing numerous gifts and treats for the families to enjoy on Christmas.

Every year, Ideaca likes to put a fun twist to our fund raising. Employees have the chance to donate money to a dare (of their choice) to another employee to perform. If the other employee agrees, they perform the set dare, if not they have to match the amount donated to get out of the dare.

Check out this year's hilarious dares from two great sports at one of our company meetings.

Ideaca Mo-Bros Raise Awareness for Prostate Cancer


Movember is an annual month-long event involving the growing of moustaches during the month of November. Every year, Canadians get together in teams to grow their ugliest moustaches.

Men lack awareness about the very real health issues they face. The aim of Movember is to change this attitude. Make men’s health fun by putting the moustache back on the face of Canadian men and raising funds for prostate cancer.

Every year around 24,700 Canadian men are diagnosed with prostate cancer and about 4,300 die of the disease, making it the number one cancer threat to Canadian men.


Congrats to our Ideacians for being great sports and raising $8,317!!!
