Why we’re dancing (and growing moustaches) this November

At Grassroots Realty Group, community has always come first. That’s why we started the Roots Foundation, funded mostly by contributions from our own agents. The Foundation has proudly backed Mo’s in the Bow and still does, because events like this keep us rooted in the place we call home. That’s why we’re back for year three!

In Banff and Canmore, the mountains are why we live here. They can also take a lot from us. Guides, rescuers, first responders and weekend adventurers all face loss and trauma out there, and too often they carry it alone. That’s especially true for men, who are less likely to reach out when they’re struggling.

️ That’s where Mountain Muskox Mentorship comes in. Founded right here in Canmore, they give people affected by loss and trauma in the mountains free, professionally facilitated support circles. Most of what we raise stays right here in the Bow Valley, helping our friends, neighbours and loved ones.

Part of what we raise also goes to the Movember Foundation, which funds men’s mental health and suicide prevention, plus prostate and testicular cancer research.

Can’t make it to the party? You can still be part of it. Every donation, big or small, makes a difference. $5, $50, or $500, it all helps someone in our community feel a little less alone.

Thank you for showing up for the Bow Valley. We’ll raise a glass (and a moustache) for you on November 27!
