Weed Man Muskoka’s 2025 Community Sponsorships

At Weed Man and Mosquito Hero Muskoka, community involvement is more than just a value; it’s a core part of who we are! Each year, we look for meaningful ways to give back to the region we call home by supporting organizations that are making a real difference in the lives of our neighbours. From animal welfare to health advocacy to community events, we’re proud to have partnered with a variety of incredible local groups in 2025! Here’s a look at some of the sponsorships we’ve been honoured to take part in this year.

andy's house hospice

Recently, the team made a generous $10,000 donation to Andy's House Hospice located in Port Carling, ON. The donation was inspired by a personal experience shared by Emma, the Technical Manager at Weed Man Muskoka:

" When Steacie had asked where I wanted to donate, I knew without a doubt that Andy's house was the place. This winter, my Aunt Vel had been in the final stages of cancer. She had gone to Andy's House. When visiting, I saw the way the staff and nurses had cared for and connected with everyone who walked through the door. They made everyone feel cared for and made the end of life care for Aunt Vel and our family as comfortable as possible. Aunt Vel was a kind, funny, and very stubborn woman. My biggest fear was that she wouldn't be Aunt Vel anymore, but she very much was. The staff had told me, "She may look different, but it's still her".

I would like to thank the staff and nurses, and Andy's house for everything you do for both patients and families alike. You all, including Noir, made a hard time just a little bit easier."

Alzheimer Society of Muskoka

Weed Man Muskoka is proud to support the Alzheimer's Society of Muskoka, joining efforts to raise awareness and funds in our community. This year, we sponsored the Walk for Alzheimer’s on May 25, 2025, for the 6th time in a row, helping champion the cause and honouring those affected by this disease that touches many lives.

Muskoka Animal Rescue

In April 2025, we presented a $10,000 donation to Muskoka Animal Rescue, a local volunteer organization dedicated to the well-being of companion animals in the Muskoka–Parry Sound region. This cause is especially meaningful to our team, many of us have adopted our own rescue pets from this group. Franchise owner Steacie Lachance has personally adopted seven cats and one dog from Muskoka Animal Rescue over the years, including Chloe, the “office lunch liberator”. Office administrator Shannon Rhyner recently adopted her dog Milo, who serves as the office mascot, and technical manager Emma adopted her cat Pepper.

Silver Slicers Tournament – Golf Team Sponsorship for muskoka children's organizations

We were proud to be a sponsor at this year’s Silver Slicers Charity Golf Tournament, helping raise over $50,000 for incredible Muskoka children’s organizations! It was an honour to support causes that are making a real difference in the lives of young people in our community.
