Southeastern New Brunswick companies want to cheer up those who need encouragement during these difficult times

SCOUDOUC, N.B. – Between now and June 30, Milco Warehousing and Logistics, Pallet Depot and Modu-Loc Fence Rentals Maritimes – all located in the Scoudouc Industrial Park near Moncton – are sponsoring a campaign called Encourage which will see individuals receive greeting cards containing an uplifting message.

Tyson Milner, owner of the three companies, says this corporate initiative is intended to brighten the day of people who could use some encouragement. “People need cheering up,” Mr. Milner says. “We’re all looking forward to spring, which is a time for longer days and smiles.”

The cards are intended for anyone who would appreciate a happy message, be they health-care workers, teachers, students, seniors, retail or restaurant workers, delivery drivers or anyone else, including family, friends and neighbours.

The message inside each card reads, “Someone who thinks very highly of you wanted us to send you this ray of sunshine to brighten your day! We hope it brings a smile to your face!” The cover of the card shows a smiling sun graphic accompanied by the words “Hi! Bonjour!” The cards will be printed in both official languages.

Each month during the campaign, three Encourage campaign recipients will win a gift card redeemable at a local business. Different businesses will be chosen monthly.

There is no cost to have a card sent. Any names and addresses collected during the campaign will not be used for any purpose other than sending the card and for any related monthly prize draws. No one will be contacted for any other purpose than to receive an Encourage greeting card or to be notified if they win a gift card. Recipients’ data will not be kept after the end of the campaign.

Cards will be forwarded to anywhere in Canada, however only residents of Southeastern New Brunswick are eligible for the gift card draws because these come from local companies. The first monthly draw will be for gift cards to Dolma Food located on St. George Street in Moncton.

Requests for cards may be sent via email to encourage@milco.ca. Requests must include the name and full mailing address of the person who will receive the card, including the postal code.
