Zak’s Home Hardware is the pioneering the FIRST Paper Poppy campaign held in Canada this Remembrance Day season!

This initiative is sanctioned by the Deputy Director of the Royal Canadian Legion Dominion Command in Ottawa ON.

Customers can donate to the Legion by purchasing a Paper Poppy in-store – add it onto their till transaction, dedicate their poppy, and take a lapel poppy to show their continued support of veterans.

The goal of the promotion is to drive Legion donations in an era where pocket change is dwindling.  All proceeds benefit our local Nutana Royal Canadian Legion Branch 362.

Paper Poppies will be proudly displayed in all 3 Zak’s Home Hardware locations during Legion-approved poppy dates: last Friday of October (Oct 27th) to November 11th.  Zak’s Home Hardware Building Centres are located in Saskatoon, Warman and Hague and are locally-owned by the Zacharias family.

Majken Cooke from Zak’s Building Group joined Dave Thomas with all of the details on Tuesday morning.
