Transat A.T. Inc.
Since 2009, SOS Children’s Villages Canada and Transat A.T. Inc. have worked together to significantly impact the lives of tens of thousands of vulnerable children and their families globally.
Together, SOS Children’s Villages Canada and Transat’s employees, customers and business partners have worked to provide caring family homes, essential healthcare, education, safe recreational spaces, food security, renovated playgrounds, mental health and psychosocial support, and much-needed humanitarian assistance to children and families in need, ensuring a holistic approach to each child’s wellbeing.
The Small Change, Big Hearts campaign, which collects spare change from passengers on Air Transat flights, along with the Big Hearts Challenge that mobilizes Transat employees to support SOS Children’s Villages Canada through donations, are just a few of the many initiatives that have helped drive positive change for thousands of children in Transat’s destination countries.
Transat is also working with SOS Children’s Villages in France, Greece, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom making Transat one of SOS Children’s Villages’ largest international charity partners.
