DHI Giving Back - The Doorway to Accessibility, Safety, and Security
Apr 4, 2023 | General News
Door and Hardware Institute (DHI) Canada has supported many charities. But the Canadian arm of this international organization decided to concentrate their fundraising efforts to support RHF.
“The door and hardware industry is the gateway for accessibility,” said Carolyne Vigon, DHI Canada’s executive director. “Advances over the years have greatly improved accessibility when entering and exiting a building, and our commitment to fire safety and security for all is the mandate of the industry.”
DHI Canada helps educate industry leaders and practitioners in codes and standards, including barrier-free practices, and RHF is grateful for their support in helping create a country where everyone can go everywhere. DHI Canada’s generous donation of $10,000, raised through their membership at their September 2022 conference, will help RHF continue the important work of breaking down barriers for people with disabilities in the places where we live, work, play and learn.
“DHI Canada’s commitment to providing accessibility, safety, and security for all Canadians is so closely aligned with the goals of RHF Accessibility Certification that it makes sense to support this great program,” Vigon added.
