The rising cost of living is being felt by many across the country and our food banks are experiencing record high demands. The people in our community facing unfortunate circumstances need our help now more than ever.

This challenge we're facing as a city sparked our inaugural Gift of Christmas Dinner initiative. Our goal was simple: to make Christmas dinner special for as many families as possible.

This year we managed to put together 85 turkey dinners with all of the fixings, plus a Monopoly game for every single family. We hope to help create good memories at a time when they may be sparse.

The 85 dinners went to Made by Momma and the Ukrainians Of Calgary Association, both of whom are vital organizations doing incredible work in our communities.

This initiative would not have been possible without the generous support from our team members, colleagues and partners. We owe a huge thank you to: Beltline Canada Safeway, Hasbro, Wilson M Beck - Alberta, Martello Group, connectFirst Credit Union, Colliers, Urban Law Group, HTC Services Ltd., Parker PR., and many more individuals.

The Gift of Christmas Dinner will be an annual occurrence, and we aim to continue to grow the amount of families each year.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from everyone at Astra Group!

Happy Halloween! We hope everyone has a great day making memories with family and friends.

This year marked our inaugural costume drive - an effort to help children at the CUPS Child Development Centre get dressed up for Halloween - we collected over 100 costumes!

We're sincerely grateful to all of our clients and community members who helped make this a success, and put smiles on the kids' faces today.

Happy Trick-or-Treating!

Astra Construction // Our team has completed the interior demolition of 129,000 ft² in just under 40 days. We're extremely proud of the fact that during the process, we were able to divert 322,000 of potential waste from the landfill towards local organizations and non-profits for recycling or reuse.

Astra Construction // It's no secret that multifamily buildings come with their own set of risk and reward.

When the risk materializes in the form of a major loss, you want to know that you're in good hands in restoring and rebuilding the property.
