Help Nancy Fly for Families

Tom Harris was a charismatic and loving father, husband, and successful businessman who built the Harris Auto Group on Vancouver Island and Tom Harris Cellular, Canada’s largest TELUS dealer. Tom always cared for the community, giving back through numerous leadership roles in Community organizations such as the Nanaimo United Way, Nanaimo Community Foundation, and Nanaimo District Hospital Foundation. Sadly, Tom unexpectedly passed away at the age of sixty-seven in Roche Harbor, Washington on June 29, 2017.

To honour and continue Tom’s legacy as a family man and community leader in philanthropy, Tom Harris Cellular has created the Tom Harris Fund for Families. 

Every year, this Fund will give back to families in need in the local communities that Tom Harris Cellular serves.

Between March and June this year, the Fund aims to raise $25,000 through Tom Harris business partners, local community events, customer donations, and employee contributions. Large celebrations will be held at Tom Harris Cellular locations on June 29, 2018, where a portion of profits will be added to the donations raised.

As an extension to these fundraising efforts, our brave and charitable team members will be participating in the first Fly For Families challenge where they will be skydiving from an airplane to help raise donations and awareness for the Tom Harris Fund for Families.

The total donations will be given back to families facing financial hardship on Vancouver Island, Metro Vancouver, the BC Interior, and across Alberta.
